Giga Chikadze has just two UFC wins, and both were very close split decisions. He prefers movement as his striking accuracy is 44% and strikes landed per minute is just 3.06. He faces Mike Davis, who has a striking accuracy of 54% and a strikes landed per minute of 5.87. He also has a better Takedown Defense (66% to 59%), and seven of his 10 career bouts have been knockout victories. Davis made his debut against welterweight title challenger Gilbert Burns and held his own. Then in his second UFC outing, Davis punished Thomas Gifford for three rounds before netting a TKO. Davis can match Chikadze's quickness and has a wider frame that will allow him to control clinch and grappling exchanges. Back Mike Davis to win the bout.
