Prediction: correct Cholish   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

I don't know much about either fighter. I'll have to do some serious research before I make my final decision, but for now, I'm picking Cholish by submission.

Prediction: correct Cholish   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

John Chollish has good striking, Mitch Clarke only has wrestling and some ground skills. Chollish is much too well rounded. Chollish has beaten solid competition and Clarke has beaten cans.

Prediction: correct Cholish   wrong Decision  

Cholish has beaten much stiffer competition, and has looked better doing it. This doesn't seem like a tough fight to call.

Don't really know either guy but will go with the one that trains with Renzo

I got Clarke and it's basically because I seen him before and he's an undefeated champ. Don't know cholish but just cause he's favored don't mean he's going to win.

Prediction: correct Cholish   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

Cholish is a much better fighter with way tougher competition.... Clarke has been fighting guys with absolutely horrible records. Watched footage on both of them, It's not gonna even be close. Cholish is better in every aspect of the fight, has much better training.... Clarke seems very stiff and he has to work super hard to get a TD.... Cholish by whatever he wants

 Clarke looked way drawn out at the weigh-ins and his cornermen seemed really anxious about his weight i.e. wiping the sweat off him and his first weigh-in was with the towel

Cholish is a pretty talented grappler by all accounts. Both will have the UFC jitters I assume, but coming from Renzo's camp, I would guess Cholish has a better idea of what to expect and may be better prepared in that way.

I seen clarke, he's a submission machine himself. Undefeated champ at 9-0 and most wins by submission. He could get UFC jitters but I think he can steal this one as an underdog.

clarke looked super drained at the weighins, I'm hoping he can put up a good fight before he gets tapped.

I'm with you Dave, the weigh-ins made me nervous but I'm staying with Clarke.
