Is Hungry dropping the ball or what?
Heard about this on the MMA Hour yesterday. No bout agreement signed yet, but it looks like it will happen.

Wonder why Al took two years to get back in there.
I know Gilbert popped and Green tore his ACL but that was in late 2015.
When this fight goes down it'll be over two years since Al's last fight.

He "retired" and tried to take up real estate

He held out because he hated his contract and wanted more. He was and still is a real estate investor and that got him by financially.
He finally caved and accepted a fight under his old contract.

He said he's gotten very big. He actually wants the fight at 170 rather than 155.

Wonder if Sanchez will be same old stiff charge forward, bleed and make a fun ugly street brawl or is he finally punched his last ticket
Also how does Al look coming off break and big knee injury
If Al wins I'd love to see a fight like DP

He was on Helwani's podcast on youtube around the time of UFC 205 and he was dressed like a real estate agent and had a whole real estate office set up and s---. I think he was pissed the most because he wasn't offered much to fight on the prelim card for 205. His excuse for wanting to "retire" was the idea that he would essentially be a celebrity, fighting at Madison Square Garden, and still driving around a cheap early 2000's economy car and that the idea of that juxtaposition was too embarrassing for him.
I have a feeling Serra and Longo had nice long sit down with him. The guy's got serious talent and 2 of the best coaches in the game and obv if he keeps fighting at the caliber he was fighting at when he beat the hell out of Joe Lauzon, then he'll be making the 6 figures per fight in his next contract deal. Think he just had a bit of the McGregor jealousy syndrome everyone was getting a taste of at the time.

Al is a total asshat. He went into an obscenity laden tirade on the fans, trashes a hotel room and leaves the UFC to pay for it, gets the UFC to cover all of his medical bills and then bitches. I hope and pray Diego cleans his clock.

First you write about Al leaving things to UFC so they can pay for but then you as well wants Diego to do some cleaning services for Al?

I don't think Diego has the chin to fight like that anymore. He was lucky Held decided to grapple with him, because he was losing the striking battle easily.

So sick of Sanchez, it used to be fun to watch him getting beaten to a pulp but even that's no fun anymore.
