Diego Sanchez vs. Martin Kampmann breaks a usual pattern in UFC matchmaking: winners vs. winners, and losers vs. losers.
Sanchez has just experienced a significant
turnaround in his six-year octagon career. Kampmann,
meanwhile, is coming off a significant loss in his half-decade with the
UFC.
Although they come from opposite ends of the career spectrum, they share
a desire to redeem themselves from past mistakes. As MMAjunkie.com’s Steven Marrocco details in our official event preview, a meeting
Thursday at UFC on Versus 3 is another step in that direction.
