Diego Sanchez VS Austin Trout set for BKFC!

[Iroh]

They must have thrown a good amount of noney at him. Or someone got into his head again... Or both. Who is his management? Does he even have manegement?

 

[MrFreeze]

This should seriously not be sanctioned...

Honestly the commission should be sued for this, Diego is not mentally sound and his health is at serious risk

I really don't like the Idea of Diego getting hit anymore man.

Me either. I guess he doesn’t have anyone in his life giving him a stop sign.

This looks like a horrible idea, especially fighting a southpaw with power.

Diego loses but I think he's still tenacious enough to make it to the decision.

Illegal

WW in BKFC is 170lbs if im reading things right, thats some weight advantage for Diego Sanchez, boxing WW is 147lbs, Trout has been fighting at 154lbs, i still think he wins this fairly easy.

Yeah Trout fights at super-welterweight/light-middleweight which has a limit of 154 lbs in boxing (so basically LW in terms of MMA-weightclasses)
Since this fight will be contested at 170 lbs, Trout will have to fight up one weightclass in UFC-standards.
Won’t trouble him much imo

Does Diego not have a family or loved ones around him to tell him to just stop. All these old timers they have taken way to much brain damage over the years getting sanctioned and licensed is just crazy to me. Shame on the promoters as well

Have no idea who Trout is , never heard his name. And he'll win. Diego can't box. Sloppy and slow punches from hip not gonna cut it. Maybe he'll make some goofy noises while getting ass kicked.

Trout was a pretty damn big name in Boxing for the 2010s decade.
He beat Miguel Cotto in 2012 and then basically drew with Canelo for a title unification in front of 40,000 fans in a huge stadium.

He might be a somebody. Just not a path my following would have crossed. Hoping he wins.

that's the scary part, he might take a sustained beating over several rounds.

 

[Dim1]

You'd be surprised they keep putting experienced fighters against MMA guys in these celebrity boxing / bare knuckle matches and they don't do as well people expect.

WAR DIEGO

 

[markys00]

Why is this in the UFC section?

 

[VinceArch]

I think he WILL more than he might. But, no ones stopping him, unfortunately. Conversely, he also has said he wanted to die in the octagon so... yay for Diego?

 

[Eternalwarriorking]

Wow, absolutely despicable matchmaking lol

 

[Sweater of AV]

War Diego. It's a shame he's still going but it is what it is.

This is obviously a strange one but I'll always hope the best for him. Dude's a warrior.

 

[badascan]

Please no... Diego needs help, get involved with a gym and be a trainer or something.

Hope he does well and stays damage free...

 

[Will G]

Sure, Trout beat Miguel Cotto, but can he do a yes cartwheel?

I highly doubt it.
