Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Cole River (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Diego Diaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think River might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Creedence Clearwater Revival - Born On The Bayou. Diaz has chosen It's Good as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
