Well, I got to give Daley his due, he looks like he's finally evolving. Never would've expected an omaplata attempt from him.

That said I've been highly unimpressed by Woodley's TD's in this fight and against Saffiedine. He was hyped up as a powerhouse wrestler but really is struggling to get strikers down.

Well, that last fight just showcases the problem with today's scoring system. It needs to be revised.  For example round 1 was essentially a failure on Woodley's part to execute his gameplan, and a success on Daley's part in keeping the fight standing.  Should Woodley's "cage control" really win him the round?

I don't know how you solve this, but I know there's a problem.

i only caught a quick glipse of the stats after the fight (so i'm prob wrong) but it looked like Daley beat him everywhere but the takedowns (statwise) ... if that was the case it shows how highly they score takedowns over everything else, even when they lead to nothing.

@gregory, Woodley might not have gotten the TD in the first round, but he still out struck Daley that round.

Daley won that fight in my eyes but I knew the judges would give it to Woodley.. First 2 rounds to Kennedy here.
