When asked about how he feels about what Woodley as an opponent and about what he has done for the sport, Luque was quick to point that out.
He said, “I’m also preparing for a much more aggressive Woodley. In his last couple of fights, he has been going for five rounds. I think everyone holds back in the first two rounds. But, in a three-round fight, I think he will open up and that is what I’m ready for.”
