You serious?

The only thing matt should watch out for is diegos uppercut and blitz style of fighting.Matt should make the fight a wrestling match.

I am NOT a Diego fan by any means... but this guy doesn't do his goofy "YES!" stroll to the ring to play nice. I think he's got a good skill set and intensity, so I am actually looking forward to this matchup taking place. I've been waiting to see one of the tuf-age group (fitch, swick, kos, diego) get beat down by Matt for a while.

Sloppy, Matt has seen that. But I can't think of Matt facing anybody with such aggression.

As long as Matt does not get caught up in Diego's stand and brawl game, he should be fine. Matt is a better mixed martial artist than Diego. Diego's strength is his aggression and recklessness IMO. Matt keeps calm, fights his fight, stays away from Diego's belly and wins without issue.....
