Bobby Green has been finding it hard to find his footing in the lightweight division. He bounced back from a string of losses with the lonesome impressive victory over Al Iaquinta in November 2021; he finished that encounter in the first round itself through a technical knock-out. California’s brightest is trying to forge his pathway to the title contention by taking on formidable names.

Nasrat has been on the same pathway, but his last outing against top contender Dan ‘Hangman’ Hooker proved to be a bit too much. Bobby is on the verge of breaking into the top 15 and needs to pick up more victories, while Nasrat is still a long way out of the lightweight picture. Bobby already has a fight of the year contender bout against top contender Rafael Fiziev.
