Diakiese-Klose booked for TUF 25 Finale

Two undefeated lightweights are set to clash.

On Wednesday, the UFC announced that Marc Diakiese will fight Drakkar Klose at The Ultimate Fighter 25 Finale in Las Vegas on July 7.

This will be the first Las Vegas booking for Diakiese, who debuted with the UFC last October carrying a boatload of hype. So far the 24-year-old Englishman has lived up to expectations, winning his first three fights inside the Octagon, including a 30-second KO of Teemu Packalen in March.

Diakiese is wasting no time hyping up the bout. He took to Twitter shortly after the announcement to poke some fun at his next opponent:

While Klose hasn't received the same publicity as Diakiese, the 29-year-old Arizona-based fighter has compiled a 7-0-1 record. He was victorious in his UFC debut in January, defeating Devin Powell by unanimous decision.
