Diego Sanchez
Joshua Fabia Goes Off On ‘Special Needs And Drug Addicted’ Diego Sanchez, Claims He Was Asked To Throw Fights
Joshua Fabia goes scorched earth on Diego Sanchez following their split, making a slew of accusations towards his former client in a recent interview.
Their toxic partnership left fans of the TUF 1 winner concerned for his health, both physical and mental, and even led to his sudden departure from the UFC.
Perhaps the most shocking of all disclosures, Fabia's claim that Sanchez was asked to throw fights by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
While he would not go into much more detail than that, Joshua explained that this was something he saw and recorded, thus the UFC wanted to make him lose credibility.
Upcoming UFC 263 Fight Odds:
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. says that he wants a Canelo Alvarez rematch after the upcoming Anderson Silva boxing match. He is predicting a 4th-round victory over Silva. This fight takes place June 19 in Mexico with Chavez Jr a -450 favorite.
Chavez Jr. told TMZ.com that Silva is delusional if he thinks he can win... and he’s predicting a short and violent end to The Spider's foray into boxing.
“[The Silva matchup] has all the ingredients to be an exciting fight. I predict I can finish him after the 3rd or 4th round. That's when I get in the groove and start feeling myself in the ring.”
Julio then doubled down on the prognostication ... “Look, I predict that after the 4th round I’ll be able to knock him out. And, if he lasts longer than that, that's gonna be his fault because that's gonna be a beating.”
Logan Paul
Logan Paul claims he will "absolutely compete" in the upcoming blockbuster exhibition fight against undefeated Floyd Mayweather, Jr. where he pays $650 for every $100 bet with a shocking upset.
And Paul has his sights set on the MMA as well.
“Yeah, absolutely,” Paul told Showtime Sports’ Mauro Ranallo when asked if he would ever take an MMA fight. “I actually think I’d probably be better at MMA because of my wrestling background. I will say it’s a tough sport. It’s harder than boxing. MMA fighters are legitimate, all around, 360-degree fighters. I’ve had some knee issues on both knees and it’s rough on the body.
“But I can’t not do at least one MMA fight before I die, at least one. If I win, I’d probably do another.”
