yeah, I saw that yesterday. pretty good for him. now, how about he mounts an offense when his opponent can't take him down for shit?
 
Just saw this. Dude went 21 for 21 against Maia injured. Now if only he could make a fight exciting.

Awesome stat, but I'm with this guy
 
Yeah, but like 39 of them were from Maia.
 
The fight with GSP knocks him out of first place. When it happens.

If you don't know that you're dreaming. GSP makes wrestlers look ordinary in comparison. He'd do it to Woodley, too.

And those numbers do not represent the whole picture. Those guys didn't all fight eachother. Or avoided way greater takedown artists by being in different divisions.

GDR is on that list, FFS.

Can't believe no one is talking about the 2 fence grabs in the first round. The most important takedowns were prevented because he cheated. Hilarious.
 
Eddie Wineland is an underrated beast!
 
Aldo still had god~like takedown defence in the last Aldo fight.
 
The fact that he allowed Maia to go for that many TDs without putting him away is shameful. I don't care about his "sprawl and stall" style (intheliver's words) to pad his TDD statistics. Pisses me off tbh. Why couldn't he have just finished one eyed Maia? Please let us not praise his TDD. Woodley is capable of so much more.
 
I hate MMA stats. The sample sizes are so small and yugely dependent on level of competition faced. You don't need stats to tell you that Tyrone has GOAT-tier TDD, just watch him fight

GSP would get KO'd if they fought, he'd throw that jab out there and get hit with one of those Woodley bombs. Hendricks had very good Tdd and did fine in the GSP fight I think it'd be a lot similiar to that fight except Woodley is faster and more.....EXPLOSIVE! Prime GSP would be a war tho.
