Is he a prospect?

He does look pretty good but if he keeps this up he's gonna need to get imaginative.

He doesn't get hit cleanly a lot either. he's taken a couple in his one but even when Joe and Dom sperg with their OHHHHH noises etc, Wood is taking most of them right at the edge of their effective range. Wood showing some pretty solid top control too. Looked good in the clinch earlier too. I like this dude a lot.

Agree with Joe and Dom here. Ewell doesn't seem to know what he's doing. He starts to make movements which could set things up - he'll hip escape to where he could get his feet on Wood's hips, or twist in a way that he could start to put himself in position for a sweep (one that is unlikely to succeed but which will at least make Wood react in a predictable way to set up something else - like later on he was halfway to setting up a flower sweep which, even if it failed as it almost certainly would, would allow him to get a leg out to stand up) but then gives it up and does nothing.

So 2 Jackson-Wink guys and the dude Jones pulled into his weigh-in selfie have all lost so far.

I think Hall finishes Penn standing unless he decides to just shoot immediately and submit him.

Ewell's the selfie guy, not a Jackson-Wink guy (unless Jon flat-out doesn't recognize other people who train there, which I could see being possible)

A few years back greg jackson stepped back and let wink run the show. Wink is a lovely head coach apparently and there was a huge rift wherein a shitton of fighters left the gym. I'm not sure that any solo winklejohn fighter has won in the UFC. greg jackson and his weirdo nodes was the real genius in that camp.
