WATCH: Diego Sanchez Confuses Fans With a Bizarre Message Ahead of UFC 253

Diego Sanchez (30-12) is one of the most eccentric individuals in MMA history. He has had 29 fights in the UFC (17-12), guaranteeing his fans have a fun experience each time. He is currently off a win against Michael Pereira, but it was a contentious one. Pereira was DQ’d after Sanchez realized that he could win by DQ if he didn’t proceed with the fight after Pereira hit him with an illegal knee. Sanchez will face Jake Matthews (16-4) at UFC 253, in a bout that may see one of the two fighters break into the rankings.

However, Sanchez would also have some other worries on his mind.

The fighter was seen giving a bizarre monologue to the UFC 253 embedded crew. Nothing we can say will duly justify to the clip, so it is best if you check it out.

Sanchez was earlier also seen doing yoga in the airport, baffling people around him.

Will UFC 253 be Diego Sanchez’s last ride?

Diego Sanchez is one of those classic MMA hard-men that struggle with giving the sport up. Sanchez’s glory days are way behind him, but he is still getting fights because Dana likes to take care of his veterans. Sanchez is the longest-tenured active fighter on the entire roster, having never been cut since joining in 2005.

Sanchez has teased retirement after this fight, but that is always up in the air with MMA fighters. Just recently, the likes of Alexander Gustafsson and Stefan Struve broke retirements. Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson is returning as well. The point being, retirement in MMA is not often planned for. It hits a fighter in the face suddenly (sometimes literally).

Sanchez’s crazy fighting style was apparent from his early TUF days. He became a showman in the UFC and is already a member of the promotion’s Hall of Fame. He is one of the few genuine legends still active, even if he never became a high-level title contender. His longevity is admirable.

Sanchez most likely won’t get the Conor McGregor retirement fight that he wants, so maybe it is best for him to pull the curtain on his career. Win, lose, or draw, Diego Sanchez has proven his worth in the octagon over the course of his 15-year UFC career.
