EA Sports UFC Roster: 15 Most Shocking Fighter Omissions

13. Diego Sanchez

The original Ultimate Fighter and MMA royalty, the fact that Diego Sanchez has been snubbed when other past-their best legends have been included like B.J Penn and Rich Franklin is insanity. Diego Sanchez has made a name for himself in the sport because of his kamikaze style €“ Sanchez is far more concerned with putting on a show than winning or losing. Sanchez is widely believed to be one of the toughest men to have ever stepped foot in the Octagon. The Greg Jackson trained fighter has been in more wars then most of us have had hot dinners and is known to bite down on his mouth-piece and continue to walk through everything a fighter has to throw at him just to land a strike of his own. Diego arguably isn€™t even as past his prime as Rich Franklin or B.J Penn who have both been included on the roster. In his second most recent fight against top-ranked lightweight Gilbert Melendez, Diego was able to score a knockdown with strikes in the third round of what was certainly a Fight of the Year candidate.
