Harris vs Parisian Prediction
Although the odds are on Walt Harris's side, he certainly has much to prove at the Apex. The former amateur boxer finds himself in the middle of a three-fight losing streak, having been knocked out in each of those bouts. In fact, Harris has now gone nearly four years without tasting victory – the longest stretch of his career.
On the other side, Josh Parisian has had mixed results since joining the UFC in 2020. He's gone 3-3 in his first six fights, failing to win consecutive outings along the way. He most recently came up short against Jamal Pogues (via unanimous decision) five months ago.
It appears Harris' best years are behind him as he hasn't looked good at all during his losing skid. Although Parisian hasn't been consistent, he's at least tallied three UFC victories since Harris last won a fight. Furthermore, Harris has struggled with opponents who know how to take things to the mat, which could be an issue as Parisian averages 1.05 takedowns per 15 minutes with 33% accuracy.
Expect Parisian to weather Harris' storm before pulling off the upset.
