----------
First impression of the match-ups:
• Till > Woodley
• Shevchenko > Montano
• Magomedsharipov > Davis
• Andrade > Kowalkiewicz
• Alhassan vs. Price (dunno)
• Suarez > Esparza
• Stamann > Sterling
• Rivera > Dodson
• Byrd vs. Stewart (dunno)
• Sanchez > White
• Miller vs. White (dunno)
• Pudilova > Aldana
• Brooks vs. Sanchez (dunno)
• Neal vs. Camacho (dunno)
- Stronger (probably, but they are 2 different weight classes on fight-night; Welterweight vs. Middleweight)
- Bad cardio (this is a fact, not a guess)
- Better pure wrestling, but doesn't use it much because he gasses fast
- He doesn't have any BJJ skills and isn't good while on top of his opponents because it causes him to use a lot of energy, which makes him gas
- He has good 1-punch power, but only throws 1 punch at a time and is facing a guy with a good chin and better movement
- He always puts himself against the cage unless he's facing a guy with terrible TDD, which then he can be aggressive. Till is all about aggression and always puts his opponents against the fence. Once against the cage, Woodley will try to explode like he did against Wonderboy, but that won't work against Till because there will be more punches coming his way.
- Woodley will be dumb if he even tries to go for a TD against Till. He won't do any damage, any Till will eventually be able to get back to his feet. This means Woodley will be faking TD attempts while purely boxing against a much better boxer/striker who has every advantage in this fight except a pure wrestling advantage.
Till is better at using his size and length, just like Rory was. Wonderboy was way too tentative for his own good. Plus Woodley has got the patience of a monk in throwing that overhand right so waiting for him to come to you is counterproductive as he never will. Till can beat him because he's got power in his hands and feet and Woodley respects that and trying to take down Till is going to be hard since he's one big dude.

Only odds for Woodley are if he manages to run long enough to do that one shot miracle before getting demolished no?
I wonder why you believe he has no gas tank btw @PR ... 3 5round fights vs pretty tough opponents which he won last 3 fights , he s had a year off, which might be problematic tho
I really wanna see Zabit make it look easy again so he can get a shot at the top dogs, guy seems so fucking good

Like Till a lot here assuming he's still healthy after the weight cut. Prob boring early, both trying to counter. But Till seems durable if he does get caught a little early. Then I think he ramps it up and Woodley won't be able to get away with hanging off the cage like he does mid-late against someone who's just as long as Rory and Thompson were...with more raw power
Like Karolina, Rivera, White, and Sterling elsewhere
So as long as Till keeps a long left arm hand fighting and throwing jabs like Rory did its going to be hard for Woodley to connect with the overhand given Till's height, so he will have to time it to KO Till and Woodley isn't very good at drawing an attack and timing the counter.
and woodley should give till something to think about. as soon as till rushes forward, woodley should give him a big right hand on the body, or a double leg.
