Titties is 10-0 with most victories by sub. If Marcus doesn't keep it on the feet, he's going to get surprised when he takes it to the ground.

He's actually half and half on finishes
5 (T)KOs ( 50 %)
5 Submissions ( 50 %)
So he probably feels comfortable wherever the fight goes.

You like titties? I guess I can see your point of view, as he stood up to Rampage's bull. I pick big Marcus tho, how slick was his arm-bar?
Nice taste in teams dude FLY EAGLES FLY (ahem back to MMA)

Marcus is, counting his TuF fight, 6-1 and with no one getting out of the first round. Most of his wins are by KO or TKO. Don't know if they were standing or GnP, but it is obvious he has plenty of power in his hands. Titties though looks to have much more polished stand-up. I think Marcus is going to throw a few hands and look to get Schoon on the ground where it appears he has a clear advantage. I am not going to count out Schoon, but I see Marcus by GnP.
edit: on snap, new belt!

Schoonover was a small LHW when he was fighting ammy, I really expected him to drop to 185lbs after turning pro. The fact that he moved up to HW was really surprising. I can guarantee he's never fought a guy nearly as big as Marcus.
Still, Darrill has a ton more experience and is a very competent grappler despite what that half-ass triangle showed. I don't expect him to get easily subbed, but then again his cardio has looked piss-poor to say the least, not that Marcus seemed any better (from the practice footage).
I'm picking Darrill for the TKO, but I wouldn't be surprised either way.

I think Darril's slow triangle was just him not being used to all his extra padding. As for the standup, Marcus' standup style is ok for guys throwing haymakers and looping punches but he leaves his center wide open. Right where Schoonover seems to like to throw them. But Marcus and his coaches have seen that so they may try and work on defending those straight punches.
Schoon's got one KO on his record but the majority seem to be TKO's so I'm expectin this to be a GnP finish by one of the two.
