Mickey Gall: ‘My kidneys were failing’ before Diego Sanchez fight at UFC 235

UFC welterweight prospect Mickey Gall wanted to challenge himself by facing TUF 1 alum Diego Sanchez. He ended up putting on a lackluster performance, en route to a second-round TKO loss at UFC 235 two weeks ago.

Gall attributed his poor showing that night to a bad weight cut that led to him gassing out inside the cage. But on Monday’s episode of The MMA Hour, he revealed an entirely new layer of pre-fight occurrences that were way worse than his initial declarations.

“My kidneys were failing,” Gall told Luke Thomas (via MMA Fighting).
