I will earn the fight with my excellence: Diego Sanchez

After Conor McGregor released screenshots of his and Dana White’s chat, which suggested that McGregor wanted to fight Sachez back in his prime days. Diego Sanchez suggests than it is better late than never. Starting from his fight at UFC 253 against Jake Matthews, Sanchez will prove why he is worthy of fighting UFC legends like Conor McGregor in a probable pay-per-view. 

UFC veteran Diego Sanchez doesn’t plan on quietly walking into the sunset. Instead he is keen to go out with a bang by fighting former two-division champion Conor McGregor in a high-profile matchup before hanging his gloves and leaving the octagon forever.

Diego Sanchez wrote on Twitter, “It’s in the ether destiny was ours long ago in 2012 a double manifestation of two warriors connected to the universe! I will earn this with my excellence sat!” 

This started ever since Sanchez spoke ahead of his clash at UFC 253 with the media. He suggested that he wants to fight against the legends of the sport while bidding farewell. 

Diego Sanchez named a few high-profile opponents he would ideally like to face in the last few fights of his career. The names include future hall of famer Nick Diaz, whom Sanchez defeated by decision in 2005. As well as Conor McGregor. 

To be precise Sanchez said, “Nick Diaz is coming back. There are some other names, Nate Diaz, there’s a lot of big fights that would be appealing for the fans. I said I shoot for the moon; Conor McGregor is the number four fight.” 

He concluded by saying, “I envision myself dominating these next three fights and finishing my career with a fight with Conor McGregor. That’s my dream, that’s my vision. As I build my legacy and his does what his does, I’ll be waiting if he wants to do it at the end of the road.”
