Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Wendell Diefendorf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sol Goldstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Diefendorf might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bad Boys. Goldstein has chosen Nothing to Prove by H2O as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Wendell Diefendorf could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Sol Goldstein's chin.
