"Just three days after defeating Sam Stout at this past Saturday's UFC 83 event in Montreal, veteran fighter and rising lightweight contender Rich Clementi (31-12-1 MMA, 4-3 UFC) has agreed to fill in for an injured Rob Emerson to fight Terry Etim (10-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) at UFC 84."
Clementi is a good fighter who is getting his due. He shows up, puts on a great fight, and is even nice enough to sometimes let his opponent sniff his nuts.
About a month ago I said I dont see Rich beating some of the top guys in the division. After seeing him beat Stout, I looked at my fiance and said that Clementi seems to have really put his overall game together well and I see him hanging with the best and beating a lot of really good fighters at 155.
