Sanchez has improved but has he gotten smarter, to take a fight like this and loss would be real bad. Anyway; Marcus Davis and some other fighters possibly were scared to take this fight against the nightmare. (He may have had no choice but to fight Luigi Fiorvanti) I would also like to see Sanchez fight Marcus Davis, it would make his come back more legit if he wins.

If he loses, well, that's a serious problem. If he wins, who really cares? I'd like to see Sanchez fight Marcus Davis. I don’t really get this either… what’s in it for Sanchez(beside a headline)?

But, if i win, it'll be the upset of the year.." - something along those lines.. and he won.. this is sort of the same situation.. but.. i truly feel that diego can get the win.. because Luigi lay and prayed with Cummo.. from what i heard [i haven't seen it yet, either] you can't lay and pray with Diego.. it's impossible.. he's going to be rolling and contorting until he catches you in something.. hey chuck,

you can’t lay and pray with Diego.. it’s impossible..

Diego, eh, risky fight/outcome for him as far as an UFN main event .... ABSOLUTELY ! now if you were talking about the "rematches" with either Kos or Fitch, that would be a PHENOMANAL ufn main-event ... and it's "damn-near" a PPV main event ... wow ! we are talking about Luigi Fiorvanti, correct?

i don’t think you guys are giving LF his due respect …. i did not see his latest decision over Cummo but i have seen him KO McFedreis and battle Leben …

imho … this is a pretty darn good matchup (i won’t say GREAT)

“fans” talk about people “stepping up” and NOT fighting “cans” … well, HERE YOU GO …. let the man “step up” and prove his worth …

risk/reward = this:
Snachez loses – HUGE RISK
Sanchez wins, he “should” have – MINIMAL REWARD

Fiorvanti loses – MODERATE RISK, as he was stepping up to fight “The Nightmare”
Fiorvanti WINS – HUGE REWARD … he basically steps over Diego, and takes his place in the ranks

i can see Fiorvanti taking this fight … Diego, eh, risky fight/outcome for him

as far as an UFN main event …. ABSOLUTELY !
now if you were talking about the “rematches” with either Kos or Fitch, that would be a PHENOMANAL ufn main-event … and it’s “damn-near” a PPV main event …

He's the one that in an interview on this site said he was going to make Diego wait for that fight. However, if it's a condition of his return to the UFC...well, I suppose anything can happen. I'm just not holding my breath. I don’t think Kos will do it. He’s the one that in an interview on this site said he was going to make Diego wait for that fight.

Because really there would be people dirty on seeing this fight if it was on the main card on an ultimate fight night. No disrespect to Fioravanti but he hasnt really earnt main event status with his performances in the octagon.
