Karl WIlliams vs. Jhonata Diniz

This is a solid fight and will determine who the better prospect is. Diniz is a very dangerous striker with a 100% finish rate, Williams is a wrestler who can control where this fight actually takes place. Both are on streaks, both can set themselves up for a ranked...
