This lightweight showdown is one of those fights that screams, “don’t blink.” Both guys are famous for their ability to finish almost any opponent, so there’s almost zero chance this one sees the scorecards. But who’s gonna be the one with their hand raised triumphantly? Let’s find out!

Terrance McKinney vs. Viacheslav Borshchev Preview
There’s one thing you can always count on with McKinney – he doesn’t do boring. All 23 of his pro fights have ended before the final bell, win or lose. He won 16 fights, 8 by KO/TKO and 8 by submission. When it comes to his losses, 5 happened by KO/TKO, while he got submitted two times.
God Terrance McKinney is such a kill or die dude, why does he have the worst defense in human history he needs to value his well being stop getting kicked or knee’d 😭 pic.twitter.com/hGpmoQxUcw

“T-Wrecks” brings to the table a kill-or-be-killed approach. Slava Claus? Sure, he’s gone the distance a few times, but make no mistake, he’s a knockout artist at heart.
He’s got crisp hands and real power, but he’s also hittable and has shown grappling holes that someone like McKinney can exploit. What’s interesting is that he’s never lost a fight by a knockout.

The explanation for this could be that he’s got a chin made of concrete. Or maybe he’s never fought someone with such devastating power in their hands as McKinney?
McKinney vs. Borshchev Prediction
This one’s not going the distance, that much is almost guaranteed. But if you’re picking a side, the smart money’s on the guy who lives for the chaos – Terrance McKinney.
