I had Gomi all the way in that fight. Diego looked slow, afraid to engage unlike previous fights, and fat as hell.

I did not think any of the judges would give round 2 and 3 to Diego so the fact that 2 did is mind blowing.
Also, Diego is one of the biggest overachievers to step into the octagon. His skillset is poor in general, and has really risen the ranks with aggression, cardio and heart. Reminds me of Guida.

I always wanted to see a KenFlo/Sanchez rematch @155. I always thought Kenny would smoke him.

I also thought Gomi won.
Sanchez's flat performance reminded me of his loss against Hathaway where he didn't turn up

| I thought Gomi won as well.
Just wanted to comment on what the good doctor said about him being an overachiever. I agree with him. It is also one of the reasons I like Diego and always watch his fights. His agression, cardio, and heart are awesome. Got to love a guy that wills his own achievement. Diego is not a philosopher that I would follow, but I do enjoy his fighting acumen.

I'm curious, did anyone think Sanchez won? I figured they would give him the 1st round off the takedowns, but outside of a few body kicks in the 2nd he had almost no offense, while Gomi was stalking him and backing him up with punches the whole time.
