Diego Sanchez - The Longest Active Fighter On The Roster Appreciation Thread.

I just wish he’d retire at this point. I hope he takes out Gall and leaves his gloves in the ring.

That would be my choice for a perfect way to end it.

Dude has done enough. We all like him way too much to want go see him all fucked up in a few years time.

Yup. But unfortunately we know what a win would probably do...convince him he should stay in the game.

I always wonder with these guys who is behind them - I assume he has a bunch of yes(!!!) men that all get a slice of the pie blowing smoke up his was and telling him to go for it... Either that, or he is as crazy as he seems and people are just like "Diego gonna Diego".
 
Diego is a respectable guy. There's a lot to like about him. I haven't been excited to watch him fight in years.
 
I will forever love Diego. I worked with some backroads, podunk dork that continuously toted that the NFL was a real man's sport and UFC was just men laying on top of each other.

We go out to a bar to watch UFC 107 and he ends up leaving halfway through the Diego fight because he couldn't hang with the blood and destruction. Never heard that dork trash talk the UFC again, besides calling it too brutal.

That's actually hilarious! I have a friend like that - he was all like "so which one is the gay one" and "when do they start bumming eachother?" all leading during the evening, but when the main even came on I had to turn the TV up loud and drown out the party to watch Nog vs Cain - when he saw Cain he no longer insinuated homosexuality, and when he flatlined Nog, my dude birthday there all quiet and was like "but did he have to keep hitting him after he fell over?".

A memory I treasure.
 
isn't the longest active fighter BJ?
 
also quite epic

Yes! Pretty fucking epic at the time. The tender respect of positioning his legs, much hespecto.

Concerned for Diego. Dude is the last guy standing everybody else from that era died off Kos, Leben etc. Stuck around too long and will be on the road to brain damage if he doesn't retire soon
 
Diego vs the downs dude might be the most feel good MMA moment I’ve ever seen. Damn.
