A strong fight from both guys. I think these guys fight 100 times, and each wins about 50. They are both strong, tough, and even. In the end, I think FIsher's highly upgraded defence gave Diego very few openings to finish. Diego did some good damage and probably won round 1. But round 2, Fisher picked it up a notch and finished Diego in the way many expected he would. Decent fight.
