Diego
Sanchez spoke to Sherdog.com’s Loretta Hunt recently, and talk
quickly turned to Sanchez’ probable shot against the winner of
B.J.
Penn/Kenny
Florian on August 8.
“Lorenzo and Dana are flying me out to Philadelphia,” he told Hunt. “I’ll be sitting there ringside. I’ll probably come into the ring afterwards.”
Sanchez expects Penn would be the more difficult challenge at this point, and video footage would tend to agree: he smashed Florian during the “Ultimate Fighter 1” finale in 2005. Both have come a long way, but the style matchup will never be friendly to Florian.
