Prediction

Honestly, I don’t have a good read on this fight as the footage on both guys is lackluster. On the feet, it seems like Bowen has the advantage of having more weapons at his disposal while with Huckbody it seems he’s only a grappler. The wrestling looks pretty even between the two and the grappling seems pretty close as well. Bowen has lost three times by submission which is concerning. From the footage available I’m more impressed with Bowen because he has an advantage on the feet and even on the mat he scrambles better. Not confident in the slightest but my pick is Bowden.
