“I think it’s a great opportunity to help promote a growing sport which is hopefully going to catch on,” Clarke told MMASucka.com. “I like the submission only format because it makes you stay active, keeps away the stalling and makes the fans stay interested.

Clarke, who has spent the last eight years honing his mixed martial arts game and has amassed a 11-3 record. “Danger Zone” was riding a two fight winning streak up until his last outing, as he lost a decision against Michael Chiesa.
