Diego Sanchez may not be back for a while

Dana White said Diego Sanchez was the most busted up fighter he'd ever seen. Is he right? That's Jon Fitch after he lost his five-round fight against Georges St. Pierre at UFC 87. Sanchez' nose looks broken, his lip was split and he suffered a cut on his forehead that's nearly the entire length of his eyebrow. B.J. Penn is a dangerous man.

and that's why my wife won't let me fight anymore. On the flip side it's nice to not have a constant dull ache in your face from sparring.

Yeah, Fitch looks worse, or maybe it's just the cauliflower ears? lol

I'd say injury wise Sanchez is worse for wear. Fitch looks like he has more surface bruising and is light skinned enough it stands out more. Also, Fitch's picture looks like it was probably a day or so later when bruises really start to show.

^ Ditto. Compare pictures from the same time - Sanchez was a bloody mess right after the fight with BJ.
