Kasanganay is an extremely good prospect. His only loss has come against Buckley in his career. However, on the basis of fundamentals, one might argue that he is a much better fighter than Buckley. Also, during their clash, he was starting to take control over the contest before being put to highlight-reel.
Nevertheless, he should be able to use his solid basics on this one and hold his own against Harris. ‘Tshilobo’ should be able to eventually secure a decision win in his favor in a hard-fought contest.
Final Prediction: Impa ‘Tshilobo‘ Kasanganay by decision.
