It's a BIG night in Las Vegas for our commentator...
This is a classic "prospect vs. veteran" matchup. Hardwick, a former Cage Warriors champion, is looking to bounce back after a tough loss in his UFC debut last September. Rahiki is an undefeated finisher making his highly anticipated promotional debut.
Harry earned his nickname "Houdini" for his ability to escape dangerous positions and pull off slick submissions. He'll need that craftiness tonight against Marwan, who has finished every single one of his professional opponents
Because Rahiki is an undefeated prospect with high-impact finishing power, he is currently the betting favorite. However, "Houdini" Hardwick is a savvy veteran with a high fight IQ, making this a classic "unstoppable force vs. immovable object" scenario.
The Prediction
The most common expert pick is Marwan via TKO in Round 1 or 2. However, if Hardwick can drag it out, his cardio and veteran craftiness will tilt the fight into his favour. A repeat of the Keweny Lopes victory for us.
Come on Harry! Up the Boro!
