Walker by sub.

He's ADCC walker now.

Also imagine being at a point in your career when you're fighting someone of similar rank and people say: Yes winnable fight.
It assumes you can't win most fights that's how much people trust Walker.
 
A bit of a tossup. Both guys are finishable.
 
Fantastic fight. Im imagining them at the heights of their careers, however... Like 2-3 years ago?

Seems like the height of Craig's career is right now tbh. It's the highest he's been ranked anyway
 
It's either Johnny via TKO via Volkan's blueprint or Craig by spinning gogoplata
 
Battle of the chinless but Craig does not possess the wrestling to get the fight to his domain. I expect Paul to soon retire after going on a 3 fight-losing streak. (He has teased retirement by the way before he put up his win streak.

I think Craig just pulls guard or catches a kick and gets a takedown from it. He had shitty takedowns, yet still ends up in grappling situations in nearly all of his fights.
 
I think a JW Highlight KO is slightly more probable than a Craig SUB.

Call me crazy but i really think that JW is not good enough to get subbed by Craig!

Oezdemir didn’t have that problem it was a super easy win for Oezdemir. Craig actually reminded me of Damian Maia against woodley, he looked pathetic against someone he couldn’t take down and started flopping like a fish.

I don’t like the fight for either guy. Craig might get flatlined in the first minute, or sub him off his back. Neither guys gain ground here, you can tell UFC is keeping the whole division in a holding pattern to allow for Izzy to come up after the Alex fight.
 
This will be fun. I’m definitely expecting a finish in this one, either by Walker or Craig.
 
Good scrap, definitely can't see this going the distance. Probably Walker TKO/KO
 
We'll be seeing some traditional Irish worm dancing when this one is done.
 
I picked Craig if goes into the ground, and I feel like Walker will shoot a td because he wants to fight safer now.
 
If there’s not at least one stanky leg, I will be thoroughly disappoint
 
Walker’s recklessness will put him on the ground at some point and then Craig will capitalize
