Does anyone here think Woodley will pull the upset?

he ko lawler
then ko maia
then ko wonderboy
then ko hendricks
then ko rory
then ko lawler again
then ko gsp
then ko hendricks again
then ko gastleum
 
puncher's chance. Lawler loves to trade and he can get caught.
 
No way. The chances of Woodley winning is astronomical.
 
Woodley is going to go into desperation mode from the opening bell trying to get a takedown. Robbie will defend, put his hands on TWood a bit, and end it with the challenger in the fetal position against the cage
 
He obviously has a chance, but I think this is Robbie's most favorable matchup since he started fighting for the title.

Yeah I agree. His recent opponents have been more of a threat on paper than Woodley.
 
I'm not so much thinking Woodley is going to upset Robbie. I'm just terrified that it could happen. For some reason the thought of Tyron as UFC frightens me. Next to Bisping, and Tate I can't think of another fighter I wish to see with the belt less.
 
I don't see it happening. Woodley hits hard but he isn't a technical boxer who throws a lot of combinations. In addition Lawler has a good chin & good recovery when he gets rocked. I think Woodley's best chance of winning would be to relentlessly go for takedowns and try to keep Lawler pinned to the mat to win a decision. Lawler's been pretty effective at stopping wrestling recently so I don't know if he can do that either.
