Prove that the graphs $G$ and $H$ are not isomorphic
$begingroup$

Let $G$ be the graph on the left and $H$ be the graph on the right.
For $G$:
number of edges: $9$
number of vertices: $6$
degree sequence: $3,3,3,3,3,3$
For $H$:
number of edges: $9$
number of vertices: $6$
degree sequence: $3,3,3,3,3,3$
I am having trouble proving these two are not isomorphic. I see $4$-cycles in $H$ but not in $G$.

Please exhibit a cycle of odd length in $H$. There are none.

@CMonsour I don't believe either have odd cycles, so that hardly helps.

It's pretty easy to see they are in fact isomorphic. Each is the complete bipartite graph on two sets of three vertices each: the sets being the upper and lower vertices on the left, and sets of every other vertex on the ones arranged on a hexagon.
