However, Woodley’s old friend and training partner Chael Sonnen believes Woodley should not and will not retire.

He said, “I’m not convinced that we have seen the last of Tyron Woodley, and I had a text message. Now this is silly, this is speculative, but I’m in the moment.”

Chael talked about how he heard something from a ‘not-so-poor’ source and according to that Woodley might venture into boxing and fight Oscar De La Hoya.

While in conversation, Chael said, “I had a text message from not the world’s worst source, telling me that Tyron Woodley is going to be considered for the first boxing opponent against Oscar De La Hoya.”

Recently there was also news about how De La Hoya is preparing to fight a UFC fighter, and now it seems like that fighter could be Woodley.

Coming off of 4 losses in a row at this stage of his career seems very tough to come back from. Now, after Woodley has lost against Luque, his future in the UFC seems to be nearing its end.

Whether the speculation by Chael is true is a mystery, and it would be really interesting to see what the future holds for the former champion.

A fight with De La Hoya could be just what Woodley needs at this point of his career to boost his stock in the hearts and minds of critics, fans and pundits.
