  • MMA skills don't always translate well to boxing
  • Paul has developed proper boxing technique and ring comfort

Technical Factors

  • Larger 8-10oz boxing gloves vs 4oz MMA gloves Woodley is used to

Mental Edge

  • Paul claims insider knowledge of Woodley's technique through coaching connections
  • Consistent track record of backing up confident predictions
