Welcome to The Weekly Takedown, Sports Illustrated’s in-depth look at MMA. Every Thursday, this column will offer insight and information on the most noteworthy stories in the fight world.
Eagle Fighting Championship returns tomorrow for its next card, headlined by the great Diego Sanchez against Kevin Lee.
The fight should be compelling–Sanchez wants to rewrite the final chapter of his career, while Lee is seeking redemption after getting cut by the UFC last November. Calling the action will be Cyrus Fees, Henry Cejudo, and one of the most knowledgeable voices in all of MMA, Chael Sonnen.
