I think the beauty of having matchmakers is that they make fights that we dont know who will win and why

One is a very effective wrestler and the other a more efficient striker.
If I would give anyone an advantage it would be Islam who has had a full training camp and is fighting as close to a home arena as it gets. But thats a psychological advantage more than anything else.
Alex has a good chance if he can replicate what he did in the last round they fought. But that said, I think Islam would rather die than lose in Abu Dhabi in front of all the people he cares about.
Who is the better fighter? We will soon know!
The great part is that in about 24 hours we will know
