As we all know, these former teammates are fighting one another on May 8th.
Cowboy has had less success over his last 5 fights compared to Diego but Cowboy has faced wayyy better competition.
Cowboy (0-4-1): Last fight was a draw with Niko Price, and before that lost a UD to Pettis (bad decision IMO), and was finished by strikes to Conor, Gaethje, and Tony...
Sanchez (3-2): Decision losses to Matthews and Chiesa, with wins (DQ over Peirera, UD over White, and TKO over Gall)
I'd be shocked if Cowboy doesn't win this fight.
In regards to their primes:
Both guys have fought for the LW title, with Diego losing to Penn and Cowboy to RDA. That 8 fight winning streak for Cowboy in between the losses to RDA has some nice names in it (Henderson, Alvarez, Barboza, Miller). Diego had a 4 fight winning streak after dropping down from WW to face Penn.
1) Who had the better prime?
2) Who would have won in a matchup if they were fighting in their prime?
3) Who wins on May 8th?
