This is an interesting fight, as both men certainly possess knockout power.
In most cases, Woodley's big edge would be his wrestling, though Burns is a very accomplished grappler and is also a black belt in BJJ. It will be interesting to see if Woodley's plan is to try to take Burns to the ground, as he might find it difficult to do so.
This is a fantastic Welterweight tilt that could really go either way.
