“Blood clots in both my legs.”
Sanchez was last seen in action back in Sept. 2020. He dropped a unanimous decision to Jake Matthews. “The Nightmare” was expected to meet Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone but was released by the UFC following health concerns and an incident with his former trainer Joshua Fabia and UFC officials.
“The Nightmare” ended up parting ways with Fabia. UFC President Dana White has urged Sanchez to pick up the phone and call him for help. Sanchez claims White hasn’t taken any of his calls.
