Today’s UFC Fight Night features a 145-pound contest between Marwan Rahiki vs. Harry Hardwick. Rahiki enters this bout with a perfect 7-0 record and recently earned a UFC contract after knocking out Ananias Mulumba in the second round on Dana White’s Contender Series in October 2025. Hardwick is 13-4-1 in his career and is coming off a loss to Kauê Fernandes in his UFC debut in September 2025.

Check out my preview and best bet below for Marwan Rahiki vs. Harry Hardwick.

RELATED Prediction, pick for Josh Emmett vs. Kevin Vallejos

Marwan Rahiki to win by KO/TKO/DQ (+120)

The Aussie native, Rahiki, has gotten off to an impressive start to his MMA career, winning seven fights by finish in his first two years in the sport. Both fighters stand at 5’8″, but Rahiki has a slight reach advantage (72″ vs. 71″). Before his last loss, Hardwick was on a nine-fight unbeaten streak while being a champion in Cage Warriors.

Although they don’t usually train at the same gym, Rahiki trained with UFC Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanovski earlier this year. Volkanovski has become the best Australian fighter in MMA history.

Rahiki is the favorite in this contest at -265 with Hardwick being a +215 underdog on DraftKings Sportsbook. This fight’s over/under is set at 1.5 rounds, with the over being at -175. Hardwick is talented, but Rahiki’s striking is a difference maker in this contest. Rahiki is a top-tier athlete, and his fast-paced style will likely be too much for Hardwick to handle.
