"Gamebred" is one of the true veterans of the game. Jorge Masvidal is one of the rare combatants who rose from the ranks of being a street-fighter fighting for fast-food to becoming one of the most elite MMA fighters on the planet.

Masvidal may have found himself on the losing end of one too many decisions as of late, but make no mistake about it, he wasn't really dominated in any of his recent losses. Honestly speaking, Masvidal has the best technical boxing prowess in the UFC Welterweight division today, and could very well cruise to a decision win against Tyron Woodley if the fight stays on the feet.

Nevertheless, even if this bout does hit the ground, Masvidal is known for his cat-like reflexes and would find a way to get back to his feet – resuming his boxing masterclass, as he jabs off Woodley's face.

Furthermore, expect Masvidal to attack Woodley's body frequently, as gassing out the latter would enable Masvidal to hunt for a late KO/TKO finish, in the 4th or 5th round of his fight against Woodley.
