UFC 76 Knock Out
Diego Sanchez vs. Jon Fitch
Saturday September 22, 10:00 pm EST
Diego Sanchez +100
Bet this fight at SBG Global

The Diego Sanchez versus Jon Fitch fight will be the fight of the night. In my opinion Diego Sanchez is the best young star in the UFC. Jon Fitch on the other hand is no joke as he is one well rounded fighter. Before his loss to Josh Koscheck, Sanchez was ranked as high as that #2 welterweight in the world. Jon Fitch (14-2) is tough but he hasn’t fought top level opponents in MMA yet or fought at the UFC level.

Bottom Line: Fitch has the edge on power and striking abilities but Sanchez is a better wrestler and grappler. Sanchez has something to prove after putting on a bad performance in his last fight.

Diego Sanchez is going into this fight and with something to prove. Look for a hard fought decision by Sanchez
