FC Flashbacks: Diego Sanchez Unleashed Before Music City Showdown
Living UFC legend Diego Sanchez let all his goodness fly ahead of his bout with Al Iaquinta at UFC Fight Night 108.
The FloCombat Flashbacks series revisits in-depth interviews with fighters leading up to crucial bouts in their careers, and there's no fighter with a more storied track record at UFC Fight Night 108 than Diego Sanchez.
The Albuquerque native has remained in a constant state of evolution throughout his time in the UFC, and the path Sanchez has traveled has made him one of the most beloved and enigmatic figures to ever compete in MMA. From "The Nightmare" to "The Dream", becoming the inaugural winner of The Ultimate Fighter to his rise to become a lightweight title challenger and his reinvention to his current "Lionheart" form, the Jackson/Winkeljohn staple is a fighter with stories to tell.
And during the Southwest run of the FCRoadTrip back in February, Sanchez pulled no punches in a one-on-one with Senior Editor Duane Finley ahead of the veteran's bout with Al Iaquinta on Saturday night.
