Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dylan Diaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boner Patrol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Diaz might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Attitude Adjustment. Patrol has chosen Feelin myself - Nipsey Hussle as his entrance music. Dylan Diaz has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
