i was wrong.
tyrone woodley impressed, but i still don't know how far he can go in the UFC WW division based off one win over jay hieron.

Tyrone says he wants Rory Macdonald next if Condit pulls out,he also ruled out Damian Maia lol(I wouldn't want to get submitted off Maia either)..Woodley wants the likes of Macdonald,Condit or Nick Diaz to really get the best out of him and to please the fans. I think the way Macdonald fought against Bj makes me think that he would knockout Woodley(Condit or Diaz too).

I didn't confirm this stuff at all, but is he delusional? He JUST lost to Nate Marquardt.

So would a win over Shields warrant a top contender matchup? Maybe the loser of Hendricks/Condit? I'd like to see him vs Ellenberger.

Not at all. He's barely top 20 now and with a loss he'll likely get cut (maybe even with a win). He's probably lucky he had a fight booked or he would be gone already.

One of the names that seems to have been swept under the rug was Tyron Woodley. His hype train was silenced when he lost to Marquardt, but do people think he was all hype, or a legit contender at 170?
That division is stacked with other wrestlers (GSP, Kos, Fitch, Ellenberger & Hendricks). Will he make any noise in the UFC?

Losing to marquardt does not make you bad.. Nate left the UFC a real Top 5 fighter and still is. Woodley is legit and will only get better. Maybe not champion material but Top 5 one day i believe is realistic.

I hope Woodley smashes Sheilds! I was never a Woodley fan, but his last 2 fights were pretty exciting.

very scary now. I think that loss to nate marquardt was the best thing that happen to his career. it took him out of his comfort zone and made him no longer afraid of striking.

Could you imagine Woodley vs. Lombard?

Woodley is top 15, although i like that he wants to fight top guys, he calls them out after 1 win. the same after beating Kos. how about he has a win streak in a very tough decision. cause he showed absolutely nothing in the shield s loss.
he's too dependent on his right hand, doesn't look to set it up, nor has a good transitional game. guys like Story and even Pierce would give him lots of problems.
against veteren WW's he stands teh risk of being out struck cause he looks for 1 to 2 power strikes.

Didn't see what coming? He was a heavy favorite in the fight. Also losing to Jake Shields should immediately require a 3 fight win streak before your ever mentioned in a thread again.

I was moslty basing it off the poll(I know it was awhile ago) but your comment at the end was classic.

It is amazing how the "hate" scale has tipped over to "like" since this poll was made.
