UFC American welterweight Joaquin Buckley shared his prediction for the upcoming bout between two undefeated prospects in his division, Shavkat Rakhmonov and Ian Gary.
The Kazakh and the Irishman will meet at UFC 310, which takes place on December 7 in Las Vegas, USA.
"Not many people will understand me for sure, but I believe that Harry will be the winner. He'll win on the slim, as he likes to do. Against Michael Page and Jeff Neill he did one thing well - he kept his distance and survived. If you don't have outstanding footwork to catch a runner like that who is constantly evading your attacks, you won't be able to hit him well.
If you try to get into a scorcher of a swap with Rakhmonov, you're going to burn out quickly. But it seems to me that Ian Harry will not go into a burning house. He will run away at the first sign of danger. So I would bet on Harry winning by judge's decision," Buckley is quoted as saying by Lowkick MMA.
