Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Curt Warburton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Juan Diadante (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Warburton might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wretch 32 ft Delilah_ Don`t Be Afraid. Juan Diadante has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
