“I let the ‘Nightmare’ go. A nightmare is something that is negative and kind of evil. I don’t want to represent that. I want to represent positivity and I want to represent the good. I look back on my whole career (as) the ‘Nightmare’ (and) the nightmare was myself. I was my own nightmare. All the times I fell off track and got into drinking, got into smoking weed, the things that brought me down, the partying. That was my nightmare. I was my own nightmare. I’m grown up (now). I’m going to let that name go … I’m just going to stick with Diego Sanchez.”
Sanchez meets Martin Kampmann on March 3 at the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Kentucky in the main event of UFC Live: Sanchez vs. Kampmann.
