Pretty interesting match in Bellator's Featherweight division(most of their 145lbs fights are top notch) and should have some type of potential title implications for the winner, probably moreso for Curran though. Curran at his best I feel is one of the best Featherweights in the world. He's beaten the current champion Daniel Straus twice(no controversy unlike Pitbull's second win over Straus) and convincingly beat Pitbull in their first fight(close fight but each round had a clear winner and I had it 3-2 Curran). Karakhanyan although a really talented fighter can his own worst enemy as shown in his last fight against Weichel. He's a very aggressive fighter but when a fighter refuses to engage on his terms, he easily gets frustrated.
As far as my pick. I'm going to go with Curran. He should be able to keep Georgi at bay with his crisp boxing and rangy kicks while maybe landing the occasional take down and working from there. If Curran isn't on his game though Georgi could outwork him to a decision or snatch up a Guillotine off a sloppy take down attempt.
