By The Numbers: Harry Hardwick vs. Zafar Mohsen

Cage Warriors Fighting Championship will stage CW 172 this Saturday at Vertu Motors Arena in Newcastle, England. A showdown between Harry Hardwick and Zafar Mohsen for the vacant featherweight title serves as the headliner.

“Houdini” was in the corner of his brother, Georges Hardwick, at CW 152 and looked on as he registered a first-round knockout of Yann Liasse to claim lightweight gold. Now, the older Harwick sibling finds himself on the cusp of championship glory. Mohsen stands as a staunch barrier. He makes his promotional debut on the strength of a three-fight winning streak, with all three of those victories having resulted in finishes.

As Hardwick and Mohsen prepare for battle at 145 pounds, a look at some of the numbers that bind them together:

10: Hardwick has registered 10 victories in his 14 professional bouts. He also holds a formidable 3-1 amateur record with two finishes.

4: Hardwick has registered four of his wins via submission, his ground game proving to be the biggest threat in his arsenal.

50: With five decision victories and one technical knockout on his resume, Hardwick’s decision win rate stands at 50%.

1: Hardwick has one stalemate on his ledger, as he settled for a majority draw against Federico Pasquali at CW 140.

3: Three losses stain his record. He submitted to a Blaine O’Driscoll rear-naked choke early in his career, then dropped decisions to Luke Ord and Richie Smullen.

7: Mohsen has secured seven of his 13 professional victories by knockout or technical knockout, which accounts for 54% of his career total.

4: Mohsen has suffered four setbacks—two by knockout, one by submission and another by decision.

9: Renowned for his explosive fighting style, the 29-year-old Mohsen has nine first-round finishes to his credit.Jordan O'Neill vs Thodoris Serdes
