It looks like Michel Pereira does not agree with the way his fight against Diego Sanchez ended at UFC Rio Rancho. But not because he thinks a “no contest” should have been awarded, or that Sanchez took the easy way out. But, rather it seems he’s arguing that the knee that ended the fight was clean.
After winning the first two rounds of the card’s co-main event, Pereira caught Sanchez with an illegal knee to a downed opponent early into the third. That move resulted in a cut, and after consulting with the referee, Sanchez decided he couldn’t continue.
