Hey everybody,

I'm new to the board. I'm a big fan of the UFC and was wondering what's going on with Diego Sanchez. Has he fought anybody lately?

Great to be here at the UFC Fight Forum

He's going to fight in the March card. The other fighter is not known yet.

LastExit34 · 02-05-2006, 02:37 PM

I'm pretty sure he is supposed to be fighting John Alessio

The_Iceman · 02-06-2006, 03:19 PM

he needs to fight someone good

Feza · 02-06-2006, 03:45 PM

Yeh March 4th will be a real good night! The return of B.J Penn.......fighting St. Pierre. Should be a good fight

As well as Franklin - Loiseau.......Can't wait..!

I hope you were using sarcasum. Diaz is far from bad. But his last opponents have been bad style match ups for him.

Nope he just had a bad gameplan against Diego. Tried to beat him on the ground. He would knock him out in a rematch.

You know he got robbed against Riggs.

Anyway. Diego needs to fight someone who can match him in the wrestling department to show that he is one dimensional. Unfortunately I don't see UFC doing that.

The truth. UFC needs to stop coddeling its TUF guys for once, and only putting them up against wannabes w/big mouths.

Tired of seeing Diego tear through paper tigers like Nick Diaz,who were falsely hyped up as if they were an actual challenge for sanchez. Its time for a true test.

Paper tiger? Didn't you see Diaz and Riggs pounding on eachother for 15 minutes last night? If that's not tough I don't know what is. That was the fight of the night in my opinion.

So what if two mediocre guys were pounding on eachother in the equivilent of a UFC catfight? That does little to make either one look better.

Hmm maybe Joe riggs will be the next scrub they feed to diego...*sigh*

Haha. Whatever man. They were beating the crap out of eachother. It's funny you think they are scrubs. Is that why Karo barely beat Nick. He's a scrub too I guess. And Joe has HW power in his hands. He was a little lacking but still has ridiculous power. Plus he outweighed Nick by 30 pounds. Get a clue my friend. I'm a Diego hater but I can still give him the respect he deserves for beating Nick.

I agree.. I am no Diego Fan but i'll give him the props for the W over Diaz.

Yeah the win over Diaz is the most impressive thing of diego's record. The UFC hasn't been coddeling the TUF guys for some time now. Jorge, Diaz, Franklin, ficket, and even irvin were serious challanges for all of them. Forest is the first one that has yet to face a serious challange and they have him against Tito next.

Actually IMO Nate was the first one to face a serious challenge when he fought Rich for the title.

Forrest has his work cut out for him when he faces Tito.

I hope your joking about Diaz. Even with his recent losing streak he is still in the top fiive in the WW division. You must not follow the UFC all that closely.

Yeah, Nate was the first. But I was trying to say that Forest is the only one that hasn't yet. And that is going to change soon.

Feza · 02-07-2006, 11:26 AM

WOW when's Forrest going to face Tito?? Soon??

Unknown · 02-07-2006, 11:36 AM

In April.
