It appears that Diego Sanchez isn’t willing to own up to his recent loss to Josh Koscheck at UFC 69. An attentive MMA HQ reader alerted me to the fact that Diego recently updated his myspace.com page. In the “about me” section Diego has the following to say:
I AM A FIGHTER FOR UFC WITH A RECORD OF 20-0
Really, Diego?? 20-0?? Thats funny, because the rest of us thought that once you lose a fight your record would have fallen to 19-1 instead of 20-0. But then again, we all could be mistaken.

Yes is am mad that diego lost such as i am that gsp lost. That fight was a fluke and i think it should have went to a draw. Neither one did anything except for kos pulling a sugar ray leonard and doing something at the end of the rounds to sore with the judges and getting that last impression. But right after that diego got a reverse and got his back. But that is my opinion on how i would have judged it. But i as well as diego have to come to the conclusion that he did lose and your recod now says 19-1.
LOL HE IS SO FU CKIN WIERD
‘
IS THIS CAT HIGH????????????
Diego!!!!!!!!
Lay off the cronic dude.
I think he’s a little disapointed with his performance and still wants to believe he’s undefeted. The fight was really lame especially for all the hype and hatred that these guys have for each other. Like GSP I think this experience has woke them up and renewed their passion to want to be the best. I think Diego is going to be a better fighter because of this loss. I couldn’t believe the way these guys weren’t even fighting. I think this was allmost a draw myself because no one ever had the other in trouble or really dominated. Anyway I hope he comes back with vengance and fights the way everyone knows he can. GSP vs Diego would be sick fight now because they will both have a lot to prove.
OHHHHHHH MAD THATS A GREAT IDEA I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT
HOW BOUT GSP AND DIEGO
GSP WOULD ROCK HIS ***
As a big fan of Diego’s I was just as shocked as everyone else by him pulling a “Sylvia” in that fight. Something mental happened there. It sounds crazy but I think that in a way Diego never thought he should have even been fighting a guy like Kos, who Diego believes is beneath him as a fighter. I think if Diego had to fight a top level talent like GSP, he would really go all out and not be so tentative. Diego is a pretty active fighter, fighting frequently throughout the year…maybe he just got bored. But at that same time…as soon as he felt the power of Kos’ punch, it probably changed his gameplan…that’s all it takes.
I THINK THAT DIEGO LIKE LIVES IN A WORLD OF HIS OWN….
HES SO OUT THERE…. LIKE WHO THE HELL COMES OUT WITH A FREAKIN MARIACHI BAND LOL LIKE HES MENTAL
or the band could be because he is Mexican…
just a thought
@@@@@@@@@@DOC
I KNOW THIS BUT A LIL STRANGE
one word…………peyote!
…remember, he just stated that his hero is……..Bob Marley!
good point
hillbilly
first of all payote is different than chronic u spelled that wrong in comment number 3 to but to my knowledge marley was a pot head not a payote head gsp vs diego i will never be so sure on a match again in my life except for when the icewoman fights again
LOL RICHARD CRACKS ME UP
The fight was absolutely pathetic on both parts. I can’t believe Koscheck is gloating. Over what? Over one takedown at the end of round one? They didn’t throw 50 punches between the both of them. I’ve seen 11 of Sanchez’s fights and NEVER has he been this complacent. Considering all the betting on the sides, Sanchez would probably be given at LEAST 7 to 1, yeah…I’d say he threw the fight DELIBERATELY. Not mental blocks. No peyote. Cowardice and greed and I’m disgusted that a purse was awarded to either fighter.
@DrJ
Are you going to list the payouts for UFC69?
@MMAKansas,
I’ll post them as soon as they are released
Diik!……………STOP!………………PLEASE………..
Your killing me!!!!!!!!!
LMFAO
@DrJ
Any idea of when the TSAC is going to release them?
@MMAKansas,
Not sure. I called both Monday and Tuesday and they didn’t have them, so I haven’t called back. I would think either sometime today or tomorrow hopefully.
It said 20-0 before the Koscheck fight. I saw it there.
@the good Dr
Thanks, just wondering, I would like to see what the take was for Diego and GSP… neither fighter earned their paychecks, but it’s fun to be in the know on what top MMA fighters are making..
I think Diego needs to come back to earth and read the MMA headlines. The guy is weird, but hey, so it Tito Bell, and he puts butts in the seats so, yeah, not every Tito Bell fight has been great, but they Hype surrounding him, the whole ambience of his personality is what keeps the checks rolling in, even though he is NOT a top fighter in the LHW division anymore. I think Diego is going to get shut down if he fights any better competition than what he has been fighting, I think we saw a man more concerned with his “legacy” Saturday night playing it safe, than a true champion willing to go out, set the pace, and win the fight..
@@@@@@@@@@@
ANYONE
ANYONE HAVE A TAKE IF IT WOULD BE GSP VS DIEGO
@Patrick
GSP, simply because I think that Diego would crack under pressure, freeze up like he did Saturday, and get the $%#^@ knocked out of him..
I think that Diego would freeze up like he did Saturday, he would crack under pressure, and GSP would knock the crap out of him:
GSP – TKO round 2
Sorry for posting that twice, the site told me I put the same comment out twice and rejected it, but then it posted.. so I didnt mean to repeat myself…
HEY KANSAS
WHAT R UR PREDICTIONS FOR UFC 70?
hey guys, i know Diego wasnt as aggressive as he could have been in the fight with Kos, but really, the reason why the fight went how it did was because of Kos. It was his strategy to play the keep away game, most of the time Diego was moving forward and Kos was backing away. When the crowd would boo, Diego would attack and Kos knew that would happen, part of his mind game with Diego that night. Thats when Kos started tagging him because he knew Diego would attack when the crowd would boo. After Diego realized what was going on, he stopped moving forward, cant blame him for not walking straight into right hands..
If you guys are mad about that fight, blame Kos..
Diegos like an animal when he fights, he gets that tunnel vision and his brain shuts off and he lets his instincts takeover. Kos played the mental game and made diego look stupid.. Like a Bull and a matador.. great strategy because all he wanted was the W, he didnt care if it was ugly, or boring. He got the job done too man! hehe
I think this is just what Diego needed, maybe it will make him a more cerebral fighter, because this game isnt ONLY about skill.
….LOL, he better lay off mary jane.
……wait……….did I spell that right? mary jane? Diik?
Anyone have any thoughts about Tito punking out Dana White…I really thought this was gonna go down…what a *****…
yea Amir, after Tito regained some respect from TUF show, he dropped back down a notch.. As for Dana, dam he ripped up that potbelly fast, fight or no fight, he was better off after the training heh
HILLBILLY
i think maryjane is one word on the other hand i got a couple of questions .First DR J are u really a docter i know it sounds stupid but hey ive been wondering.Second it sounds like people still got some ideas why cant we wait on this t-shirt contest maybe another month.Third hey patrick ive been wondering how old are u and were u from i kinda know were everyone is from generally ive just been curious
tito was awsome on the show he cared about his fighters a lot but after pussing out on dana i lost a little respect but why didnt dana pay the guy if he wanted money sh*it out of his own pocket if need be but then image if a guy u hated was a ufc star it must suck knowing the guy for sure could kick ur *** but dana was a boxer so this fight could of leveled the field so if i was dana i would of paid him worked my azzz off and put a spanking on him like couture did
well this was a fight tito requested as part of his contract, im sure he got payed everything else in that contract, so this fight WAS his payment. I guess tito was just mad at the time when he asked for the fight and hes not mad anymore but who knows..
I think it’s very simple….tito was afraid to get hurt before his fight with evans.
If he loses to sugar……he’s toast!
TITO WILL LOSE TO EVANS
@Patrick
HEY KANSAS, WHAT R UR PREDICTIONS FOR UFC 70?
Mirko Cro Cop vs. Gabriel Gonzaga = Prediction Mirco Cro Cop
David Heath vs. Lyoto Machida = Prediction Lyoto Machida
Michael Bisping vs. Elvis Sinosic = Prediction Michael Bisping
Andrei Arlovski vs. Fabricio Werdum = Prediction Fabricio Werdum
Assuerio Silva Vs. Cheick Kongo = Prediction Cheick Kongo
GOOD STUFF MMAK
TUF changed my opinion of Tito real quick. He seemed like a well composed, articulate fighter who loves this sport so much. But, after seeing last night’s show, I feel ripped off. I really thought it was going to happen. What Tito did was a lack of respect for many fans who wanted to really see this, he was the one who made it public. The best part was when Liddell said, “Tito doesn’t like to get hit, all Dana has to do is hit him”. I lost a lot of respect for him. He ******* about how he is misunderstood and then pulls stuff like this. Another show of greed, I did however gain a lot of respect for the President, I’m glad he’s running this thing for us. He seems like a really down to earth guy to everyone and an incredible business man.
YOYOYO
HOW MANY PEOPLE WANT TO AGREE WITH ME THAT
LIDDELL IS GOING TO KICK RAMPAGES ***
ALL AROUND THE OCTAGON??
@Patrick
I really hope that Liddell wins.
KANSAS U DONT HAVE TO HOPE
JUST KNOW HE WILL CUZ HE WILL.RAMPAGE IS
JUST DOING ALL THIS FOR THE CASH HES NOT
GONNA BEAT CHUCK
I believe that Chuck is plenty capable, but Quit’n is pretty good and anything can happen in the octagon, it’s not as predictable as a boxing ring, just look at Serra vs. GSP
YEA GSP LET ME DOWN WITH THAT FIGHT
I’ll tell you who let me down, and really, for me this is where the UFC fights started becoming unpredictable was Andrei Arlovski getting knocked out by Tim the Idiot Sylvia, man, that was a freakin’ nightmare, watched one of the best get knocked out by a guy who probably wet his bed until he was 17 years old..
Then Couture completely dominating Sylvia.. whoa at 43 years old… that was a WONDERFUL surprise.
But then, GSP getting knocked out by Serra, that was just stupid…
So, anything CAN happen.. but I do think Chuck will beat Quit’n.
KANSAS WITH THAT ARLOVSKI FIGHT ITS HARD
TO SEE BUT WHEN TIM THREW THAT PUNCH THAT HIT HIS
CHIN ITS HARD TO SEE BUT SYLVIAS FIST SLIPPED OFF HIS CHIN AND HIT HIM IN THE THROAT … THERES A VIDEO ON UTUBE SHOWING IT… THE UFC GOT ANDREI TOO BIG TOO FAST…… WELL SEE HOW GOOD HE IS ON THE 21ST
GSP’S FIGHT MAN THATS THE WORST MOST EMBARRASSING KO IN MY OPINION …. I WOULD SO BE AFFRAID TO GO OUT INTO PUBLIC THAT WILL MAKE GSP EVEN TOUGHER THOUGH… I STILL DONT BELIEVE SERRA WON I HAVENT WOKE UP FROM THAT DREAM I HAD YET..
HEY DOC …. HAVE THE PAYOUTS YET?
