Kelvin Gastelum disagrees with Tyron Woodley title shot, believed Demian Maia was next

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight division is a fight fan's dream. With a plethora of world-class strikers, relentless wrestlers, proven finishers and a champion in Robbie Lawler who simply does not quit, the 170-pound faction represents everything that is unpredictable, barbaric, and artistic about mixed martial arts (MMA).

But with such a collection of deserving title contenders, not everyone is going to agree on who should be next in line to challenge the champion for divisional gold. Just ask current Welterweight hopeful Kelvin Gastelum, who recently argued that No. 3 ranked Tyron Woodley may not have been the best choice for Lawler's next opponent at UFC 201 on July 30.
