Great match up!
These fighters are mostly known in Europe, but these two can fight and its time for them to become more known internationally. The winner of the fight should be able to get into the top 10 or 12 of the division.
Fornlin has a win over Murat, whereas Boesel lost by TKO to Murat.
They are very evenly matched and both have vastly improved over the past 2 years but I think that Boesel’s experience will help him win the fight by UD.
