Undefeated Diego "Nightmare" Sanchez walked into UFC 69 against his arch nemesis from season one - Josh Koscheck - knowing that a victory would almost certainly guarantee a title shot. But Sanchez came up short and was handed his first career loss, by decision. After making some changes to his training, Sanchez is back and wants to prove he belongs atop the welterweight division. In order to do that, he has to get by one of the hottest fighters in the sport.

Jon Fitch faught his way to the top the hard way. He's racked up six straight wins in the Octagon, including submissions over Roan Carneiro, Luigi Fioravanti, and Josh Burkman. Fitch knew it was only a matter of time before he got his shot at the big time. And now, he has that chance against Diego Sanchez. A seventh straight victory would almost certainly guarantee Fitch a shot at the welterweight title.
