Diego Sanchez
UFC legend Diego Sanchez returned to the Octagon at last night’s UFC Rio Rancho event for a welterweight scrap with Michel Pereira.
In the third and final round, Michel Pereira appeared to be on the verge of putting Diego Sanchez away, this before he landed an illegal knee to the head of ‘The Nightmare’. The referee immediately stepped in and called a stop to the action so that Diego could attempt to recover.
However, after a couple of minutes of weighing his options, Sanchez opted not to continue and was thus awarded a victory due to disqualification.
