Kairat Akhmetov vs Reece McLaren Prediction: Akhmetov will win once again

On May 6, Reece McLaren will make his ring return for a bout against the surging Kazakh phenom Kairat Akhmetov in the flyweight division.

Kairat Akhmetov - expected to win this rematch

Kairat Akhmetov will enter the fight having won four of his most recent five bouts, one of the most recent of which was a victory over Reece McLaren at ONE: A New Era in 2019 via unanimous decision. This run also includes victories over well-known competitors in the flyweight division, such as Danny Kingad and Tatsumitsu Wada. If Akhmetov is successful in his rematch against McLaren at ONE Fight Night 10, he will very certainly be granted the opportunity to face the victor of the fight between Demetrious Johnson and Adriano Moraes III. Since the Kazakhstan fighter is the bookies' favorite to win this matchup, we now anticipate that he will demonstrate quality and put on a performance that is of the highest caliber.

Reece McLaren - confident of getting a revengeful win

As of right now, Reece McLaren is riding the momentum of two consecutive finishes in his most recent competitions. In the year 2022, the Australian fighter defeated Xie Wei via submission in the first round and then went on to knock out Windson Ramos in the second round, which was an even more spectacular performance. However, despite the fact that he has already been defeated by Akhmetov in 2019, Reece McLaren will be hoping for a better performance here. Ahead of this competition and demonstrating his self-assurance, Reece McLaren says, "I think I've shown that I'm more diverse." I'm different. Absolutely not the same. I don't want to be disrespectful to Akhmetov, but with all due respect to him, it's like, 'Man, you're still the same.' 'Lightning' is presently ranked fourth in the flyweight division, but a victory over 'The Kazakh' might put him in the running for the flyweight championship.

Expert Betting Tips

The Kazakhstan fighter, Kairat Akhmetov, has a significant advantage over Reece McLaren at this point, and we anticipate that he will prevail in this bout. However, as we believe Reece McLaren will do well to avoid another loss to his fierce opponent here, we expect the Australian to demonstrate stubbornness, and as a result, we anticipate the match will go on for a long time.
