I'm willing to bet he stands a little and try to at least faze Condit with his KO power then use his wrestling like you said. But Condit is good kicking too so he may try to use that to keep the distance. Honestly, I see Woodley coming out on top and fighting the winner of Hendricks vs. Lawler.
He'd be smart to not even attempt to mess with Carlos on the feet, and to use his strongest skill which we all know is his wrestling. But I suspect you will be right Kolohe and he will try and trade at first. I don't understand why the UFC gave into TW and made this fight...fans would rather see Condit vs the winner of Hendricks/Lawler and it would sell better than a Woodley title fight would right now, it just isn't smart business IMO.
Don't get me wrong I would love to see Woodley vs Hendricks/Lawler winner and Woodley vs Condit but I just think the UFC should be giving Condit a more winnable fight to try and get the biggest title fights possible with the GSP cash cow on hiatus.
I think Dana White should've made Woodley vs. Jake Shields 2, before Woodley getting a top 4 contender spot. If anything Shields deserves it much more than Woodley, coming off two good wins of Woodley and Maia.
