I think it's a tough one for Haggerty. I think Nabil's very good. He's great at using all the tools he's got and the range he's got. He's good at fighting on the outside and good at fighting on the inside. I think it’s a tough night for anyone. I know what I'd do to him if I were in there with him. I've already thought about that, but we won't get ahead of ourselves.”

Not just a fighter, but also a fan, Jake Peacock can’t wait to see Anane take on Haggerty, and he’s already made a quick pick for who he thinks will win.

He told South China Morning Post:

“I'm absolutely thrilled just for the opportunity to fight. I'd fight in my backyard if I had to. But to fight in Japan, even better. ONE 173 is absolutely stacked. I love Japan. I love to fight. All things are going in the right direction.”
