Personally think Lauzon vs Iaquinta is harder to call than Woodley vs Gastelum because I think Lauzon could win if he focuses on clinch and getting it to the ground. In past fights, I have seen him stand and bang with opponents where he was clearly losing. Not once did he ever attempt to get it to the ground. In this case, I think Iaquinta has a serious flaw in his ground game and could get easily caught against Lauzon.

Woodley already stated in a pre-fight interview that he isn't looking for the KO and will be pacing himself for his fight and fighting "his game". Even with the bad weight cut, I still give the cardio edge to Gastelum who I feel will get the decision unless Woodley does manage to hurt him early.
