Tyron Woodley vs Gilbert Burns 5/30/2020 – UFC Fight Night Pick & Prediction

UFCUFC Fight Night is featuring a couple of great fighters in Woodley and Burns in the welterweight. In this battle the records are actually coming in fairly even between the two teams as Woodley has only 4 losses in his career and Burns has only ended up getting 3 losses pinned on him. Woodley does have a no decision in his career as well.

Woodley is known more for being a wrestler when it comes to his fighting style. The last time that Woodley entered the Octagon was in March of 2019 in what ended up being a unanimous decision loss to Kamaru Usman in a title fight. The loss dropped Woodley to a 19-4-1 record overall, but when it comes to the TKO/KO fight he is sitting at 7-1 on the year. Submission fighting for Woodley has him sitting at a 5-0 record. When it comes to significant strikes per minute at 2.50 with an accuracy that is coming in at 49.54%.

Gilbert Burns is coming into the fight here with a striker type of style that could help him out quite a bit. Burns in his last fight ended up winning over Demian Maia in what ended up being a TKO/KO victory in the first round of March 2020. The win allowed Burns to improve to 18-3 overall, but when it comes to the TKO/KO record Burns is sitting at 6-1, but he is great as a submission fighter at 8-0. Burns is quite a bit better at throwing significant strikes at 3.13 per minute with the accuracy landing at 44.26%.

Coming to the tale of the tape Woodley has ended up getting in at a height at 5’9” and 170 pounds. He does have a good reach that is sitting at 74 inches, which will allow him to get into the strikes quite a bit easier. Burns is heading into the bout sitting at 5’10” and 170 pounds, but Burns gives up a little bit of a reach advantage at 71 inches.

UFC Odds are from Betonline.ag

The fight here will be a good one, but Woodley has not been in the octagon since March of last year. Burns was in the octagon this year in March before the shutdown. Burns also throws more strikes per minute, but does not land at as high of an accuracy. Look for Burns to throw harder in this bout and land more blows, but also bring in a win in under 4.5 rounds as Woodley struggles to bounce back like he would like after being off for a year.
