Diego Sanchez vs Gilbert Melendez

Diego via Split Decision.

Yes, I'm serious.

Yes, I also understand how dumb it is to predict a split decision.
 
I don't see how Diego gets this fight either. He's no where near even top 10. But he does have a good name.

These nonsensical matchups are the number one reason for my lack of interest in the UFC lately. It's like Joe Silva just spins a wheel to pick fights sometimes.
 
Gilbert by 30-27. I love Diego and I'm a big fan but his best days are behind him, sad to say.
 
The only way Diego wins this is if the old 2009 full-of-intensity Diego 'The Nightmare' Sanchez steps into the Octagon. And even if he lost, it would be a fight-of-the-year contender.
 
Sounds like a big name gimme fight for Gil.
 
I think Melendez is a much more finesse fighter and can push through Diego's pressure. He'll prolly win by UD
 
I see Gilbert winning he nearly beat Bendo.
 
Melendez by UD. Probably Fight Of The Night. Or a terrible match. Its gotta be one of the two.
 
Melendez by decision. Sanchez doesn't seem like he's the same beast anymore IMO.

Melendez is going strong and he's in his prime, I think he'll be a step ahead of Sanchez the entire time.
 
Melendez is elite, Diego is good but not great. Melendez will win this but he is not going to finish Diego.
 
If Diego doesn't pull a Jackson this has the potential to be one of the #10 ever imho. Let's hope for the best.
 
Sounds like a big name gimme fight for Gil.

My thoughts exactly , But I want Gil to stay at the top of LW division .. I believe IF he gets another crack , IF its bendo .. he wins.
