Around SBN: Iron Bowl Thoughts... Right Now

Diego Sanchez says he's dropping to 155

Sanchez posted recently on his MySpace page saying, " I'm training hard and will be dropping down to fight at 155."

When reached for comment by MMAWeekly.com, Sanchez' manager Jeff Clark from NCFC Fight Management, confirmed that his fighter is healthy and recovered from a rib injury that kept him out of his last fight. But while he has made it no secret he has a desire to move to 155 pounds, the UFC has not offered him a fight currently and he would be open to a match-up at either lightweight or welterweight.

While there has been speculation of a rematch between Ken- Flo and Sherk for the interim LW crown if BJ were to beat GSP, this could make for perhaps a more intriguing rematch. Sure Diego has not proven anything at LW, but I would not be opposed to seeing him fight Kenny in a rematch of the TUF 1 finale if the title is vacant to crown the new champion.
