Elves Brener is in a rough spot right now. The Brazilian has dropped three straight in the UFC, including a brutal third round TKO to Joel Alvarez where knees in the clinch put him away. But here's the thing, before that skid, Brener showed he's got serious power when he slept Guram Kutateladze with a punch in round three and knocked out Kaynan Kruschewsky in the first. The guy can crack, no question about it. Josiah Harrell is making his UFC debut, and honestly, we don't have much tape on him at this level.
- Brener desperately needs a win after three straight losses
- Harrell making UFC debut coming off a first round finish loss
- Brazilian knockout artist hunting for his finishing touch again
If Brener is going to get it done, expect him to hunt for that knockout early before Harrell can settle in and find his rhythm.
What we do know is his last outing didn't go well, getting finished by Jacobe Smith in the first round via ground and pound from side control. That's a tough way to come into the big show, especially against a guy who's been in the Octagon multiple times and knows what it takes to finish fights. This is a classic striker versus question mark situation. Brener fights orthodox out of Chute Boxe Diego Lima and has proven knockout power in both hands. When he's on, he can end your night with one clean shot.
Harrell is a southpaw from Grove City BJJ, but we're still waiting to see what his game looks like against UFC level competition. The stance matchup could create some interesting angles early. For Brener, this is a must win fight. Three losses in a row usually means you're fighting for your job. For Harrell, it's all about proving he belongs and making a statement in his debut.
