I have nothing but the utmost respect for anybody that hangs with him on the ground. I know Diego is good and MMA is a lot different from submission wrestling, but I'd still say Ken is better on the ground. The only hope for Diego is to get the takedown and then ground and pound. I don't think he'd be able to pass guard or maintain top position long enough if he did. Guess we'll find out April 9th if Diego makes it.
