Getting taken down doesn't automatically mean you're getting subbed, of course not. But IF Maia hits a TD and has Woodley on his back with any time at all to work, Woodley will be living an absolute nightmare. He will be in quicksand, praying he can hold on. And in that scenario, yes someone will gas. But it won't be Maia. Woodley having to defend off his back against a grappler on Maia's level if gonna make Woodley a walking zombie, maybe even after just one round of it. Woodley can go 5 rounds when there's long periods of staring at the other guy in a standup fight (like both vs Wonderboy). He doesn't have the gas tank to last 7 or 8 minutes trying to fend off a grappler like Maia on the mat.
If you think Woodley just stuffs all the TD's or is always able to get right back up, that's one thing. Then yes, he probably wins by KO. But thinking Woodley can get taken down and it's Maia's gas tank that's gonna get sapped is just way way wrong. Maia has shown he can play his game for at least 3 rounds. Woodley has gassed and slowed down in much less taxing situations then defending on the mat vs an elite grappler like Maia.
if maia does take woodley down it will most likely be against the fence where damian probably will not have much success securing a sub. my guess is that tyronne is going to play the fence game unitl the third round when damians tds are less effective and then he will take the fight to the center of the cage where he will have a serious advantage
