The UFC sure seems sweet on Nickal. This is his second straight appearance on a major pay-per-view card where he's a huge favorite. The wrestling prodigy has all the right qualities to make him a potential megastar, and the promotion is ensuring he gets plenty of exposure to the public and is brought along delicately.
Nickal has been marketed as a strong wrestler and with the limited appearances we’ve seen from him, it’s accurate. He has a suffocating grappling game and supreme conditioning. Once he gets his opponents on the ground, he becomes immediately dangerous as he seeks out submissions. In his three fights with the UFC, he’s averaging 12.50 takedowns per 15 minutes and three first-round submission wins.
So far, Nickal has been fighting opponents who lack the resources to handle his groundwork. Original opponent Tresean Gore figured to be more of the same, and we shouldn’t expect a change in plans with Nickal’s strategy. The southpaw will move forward, throw a few shots to get Woodburn’s hands up and take him down into the mat. Not much is known about Woodburn, but he was slated to fight for a UFC contract as part of the Dana White Contender Series. He’s 7-0 and trains with the Xtreme Couture gym and operates primarily as a striker. He’s also the current middleweight title of the regional Combat Night promotions, so he's more of an unknown than a total novice.
The Jamaican is no doubt benefitting from working with top fighters and is more versatile than Gore. With what we’ve seen from Woodburn, he’s a pressure fighter with good striking instincts and a solid finisher. He’s scored five knockouts in seven fights and may give Nickal some trouble if he can avoid the takedowns.  Â
