After his recent win at UFC 235, Diego Sanchez told the media he wanted to fight Demian Maia next. Maia has now responded to Sanchez’s call-out, stating he would be keen on the ‘fun fight.’
With almost 60 UFC appearances between them, Sanchez and Maia have spent over 10 years each in the UFC but their paths are yet to cross. That could change though, as Maia recently spoke to MMA Fighting showing his interest in a fight with Sanchez.
”I have a lot of respect for Diego, he is a warrior, and like I said on my Twitter, you can never underestimate experience,” Maia said.
