Steve Cantwell vs. Cyril Diabate at UFC on Versus 3

by Damon Martin | source: mmaweekly.com

It’s been a long, hard road back for Steve Cantwell, but the journey will hopefully end with his comeback at UFC on Versus 3. The former WEC champion is on a collision course with Cyril Diabate in a light heavyweight bout on the card.

Now healthy, Cantwell is hoping to get back to form when he returns to the UFC Octagon in March at UFC on Versus 3, currently rumored to take place in Louisville, Ky.

Looking to bounce back from a loss of his own, Diabate is coming back from a defeat at the hands of Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 120 in Germany.

Steve needs to get this fight to the ground immediately.

I like this matchup, but what are the chances Cantwell doesn't pull out this time?

Rua was getting bombed on until he took the fight to the ground. What do you remember?

Really wish Diabate would have gotten some ground game back in the day. I remember him absolutely WRECKING Shogun on the feet.

^^ He isn't going to have any problems going into this fight, there is nothing a matter with him.

Not sure. He's not one of the guys I know personally. Whatever it is, it seems to be pretty fucking bad. I like Cantwell and this fight would be great if he was 100%

What are the odds on Cantwell not making this fight? Sucks he's got so many problems.
