Diego Sanchez vs Al Iaquinta full fight video preview for UFC ‘Nashville’ co-main event

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight veterans Diego Sanchez and Al Iaquinta will collide later TONIGHT (Sat., April 22, 2017) at UFC Fight Night 108 inside Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

Sanchez (27-9) recently went through something of a career renaissance. It can be argued that “Lionheart” went four years and seven fights without a definitive victory, but he then scored a pair of wins in 2016 to show fight fans that the old “Nightmare” is still around.

Iaquinta (12-3-1) last stepped foot into the Octagon on April 4, 2015, opposite Jorge Masvidal. During Iaquinta’s layoff — an attempt to negotiate a better contract — “Gamebred” has since switched weight classes, put together a win streak, and is close to contending for a new strap.

Check out their fight video preview above.
