Georges St-Pierre Would Challenge Tyron Woodley, UFC 202 Extended Preview, Fighter Calls Out Champ

- The hype towards UFC 202 has hit full-steam ahead, as the promotion has already released an extended video preview highlighting the August 20 event. The card, set for Las Vegas and the T-Mobile Arena, features Nate Diaz vs. Conor McGregor in a welterweight rematch.

Diaz won the first encounter, taking the fight on short notice and submitting McGregor in the second round. Along with that fight, Anthony Johnson and Glover Teixeira collide in a light heavyweight title-eliminator.

- First it was Anderson Silva. Then Michael Bisping's name came up. Now, Tyron Woodley is someone that would interest Georges St-Pierre if the former UFC welterweight champion returns to MMA.

According to a report by MMA Fighting, St-Pierre would accept a title fight with the new welterweight champion Woodley. At UFC 201 this past Saturday night, Woodley knocked out Robbie Lawler to win the belt and become the ninth undisputed champion in the division.

In a text response, St-Pierre told the site that "Yes" he would be interested in fighting Woodley and that "Yes" he wanted the belt. GSP last fought in 2013, defeating Johny Hendricks and improving to 25-2 overall in his career.

- Khabib Nurmagomedov has some harsh words for UFC lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez. Over the weekend during a Q&A session, Alvarez called into question the record of the unbeaten "Eagle," who has battled injuries over his UFC career.

Nurmagomedov took to social media to make his response, stating that he has placed Alvarez on his own personal "blacklist" and is coming for him:

So Alvarerez says that I never fight with top fighters and talking about my pro record. I'm not sure where he gets that information, but when I fight vs Tibau he was ranked 15, when I fight vs Tavares, he was considered as best Brazilian lightweight, Pat Healy was ranked 10, when I fight RDA he was #5. My last fight, I suppose to face Tony Ferguson who is ranked #3, but he got injured and pulled out, I asked for any light and welterweight fighter for replacement, including Alvarerez, but nobody accept. But your ass, Eddie, got kicked in first UFC fight by cowboy, second fight you won Melendez by split decision, but all experts believes you lost that one unanimously. Third one you win Pettis by split decision and after that you get title shot. You beat RDA without question. Do you really believe, that with that only one UFC victory, you are great fighter and can dictate your terms? I don't think so. Remember, with or without the belt, I will hunt you down. Your name in my blacklist. ???????? ??????? ??? ? ?? ?????? ? ?????? ? ??? ?? ??????? ??? ??? ???? ??????, ?? ???? ?????? ?? ????? ??? ??????????, ????? ? ?????? ? ????? ?? ?????? ? ??? 15, ? ?? ?????? ??? ? ????????? ?? ???????? ?????? ?????? ????????, ? ???? ??? ?? 10 ??????? ????????, ??? ?? ?????? ??? ?? ???? ??????? 5 ??????? ????????, ? ??????? ??? ? ?????? ??? ??????????? ? ?????????? ??????? ???????? 3 ??????? ????????, ?? ?? ?????? ? ??? ? ??? ?? ??? ????????, ?? ?????? ??? ? ?????? ?????? ???????? ????? ??? ? 70 ??? ? ? 77 ??, ? ? ??? ????? ????????? ???????, ?? ?? ??????? ??????. ? ???? ???????? ? ?????? ??? ?????? ?????? ???????, ?????? ??? ?? ?????? ?????????? ??????? ? ????????? ???? ??? ???????? ??????? ??? ?? ???????? ???? ??? ???????????, ?????? ??? ?? ?????? ????? ?????????? ???????? ? ?????? ? ????? ????? ???? ???? ??? ?? ???? ? ???, ? ??? ? ??? ?? ?????? ??? ????????, ? ??? ? ???? ????? ??????? ? ??? ? ?? ??????? ??? ?? ??????? ? ?????? ????????? ???????, ? ??? ?? ?????, ? ???? ????? ???? ? ???? ??? ??? ? ???? ???? ????????????, ?? ? ???? ?????? ??????. #Alvarezwhereareyou ?
