Diego bringing that Randy Marsh energy. 🤣

“I didn’t hear no bell.”

Have loved watching and rooting for Diego since he stepped on the scene with the ultimate fighter . You will never find a guy with as much heart, period ! That all being said, I hope it's the fire not the money he is chasing. I hope he is doing well enough to afford a comfortable retirement when he is all done. Wish him the very best and hope his health holds out . Thank you for all the great fights and memories, you are a true modern day gladiator brother. God bless

Diego has been throwing that 1-2-1-3 straight blast combo and getting absolutely LIT up since 2009. Holy hell.

[hvacmaniac]

Gotta love Diego, same ferocity and volume every time he fights. Y’all remember clay/Diego? Damn that was a banger

[grabir]

Good stoppage. Noble of Trout to not pound on him and asking the ref to take a look. Excellent fight.

[CapzToCrownz]

First time watching one of these and man is trout technical.. love the head movement and footwork, a deceptive southpaw.

[MR-bpin]

Sanchez is tough as they come but its time to go

[josemartin]

Man I remember I took a picture with Austin Trout in 2013 at a boxing 🥊 event here in TX and got a signed autograph from him. Really cool dude. I'm glad to see he's still staying active even outside the boxing ring.

[K-S]

This was a tough watch LIVE, Diego needs to hang it up man 😓

[TitoMariategui]

Please bkfc, sign more pro boxers of this caliber to the organization 🥊

[LuisVargas-tpbg]

Diego = Legend!

Love seeing that guy fight! Every fight he leaves it all in the ring!!

True 🇲🇽 warrior!

[dansogordon]

Who ever thought this was going to be a fair fight? Gheezus ppl, Trout was a beast in his prime as a Boxer, not MMA fighter.

[akilwilliams]

Glad to see Trout still fighting, always been a fan.

[EJsFnGGalaxy]

that was classy of Trout to tell Miragliotta to check on Sanchez.

[firstlast-vtbo]

Sad to see Diego like this. Never thought much of his stand up but it was his ground game that i liked during his early days. Really liked his fight with Nick.

[jamesrussell]

Austin Trout amateur record-163-43 national champion
Pro record 43-5 WBA, WBC welterweight champion. Total mismatch in a boxing boxing match.

[Lousasshol]

This was a tough one to watch and a mismatch of epic proportions, looking forward to Austin next fight though

[nicknewport]

Before I even watch this I’m gonna say.. Diego should NOT be fighting anymore.

[alvargas]

Diego Sanchez is a living legend. Win lose or draw he's a winner. Just to be in the cage, ring with that monster is a privilege for any mixed martial artist. His indefatigable fearlessness is second to none. Even the Diaz brothers respect him. I don't know if he's in the UFC Hall of Fame but he certainly belongs there. All that being said however, Diego is looking bad. He should retire and live a more peaceful lifestyle. He looks good with a beard and mustache though.
