From his gifable “YES!” chants to his performances in the octagon right down to his excuses for a loss, everything about Diego Sanchez is pure, unbridled insanity. We’re talking about a guy who changed his nickname from “The Nightmare” to “The Dream” and somehow came off looking even more homicidal as a result. At one point during the UFC 171 weigh-ins, I’m pretty sure that Sanchez started screaming at the space where Myles Jury was no longer standing for Christ’s sake.

And although Sanchez did drop a one-sided unanimous decision to Jury last Saturday, it was his in-ring candor that once again captured our hearts and imagination. For the majority of the contest, Sanchez’s offensive output consisted of wild haymakers and Diaz-esque “Come at me, bro” poses like the one snapped above, and whenever there’s an MMA moment in need of mockery, the UG usually steps in to save the day.

A thread entitled “Romo this Diego Sanchez” recently popped up on the popular mixed martial arts forum, asking fans to work their magic with the above photo of Sanchez in action. The results have been brilliant to say the least, so join us after the jump for a gallery of the 10 best entries so far.
