The MMA world heaved a sigh of relief as Diego Sanchez announced that he was severing ties with Joshua Fabia, his guru that many in the MMA world believed had done more harm to Sanchez than good. We discuss the announcement and the implications, review results from Bellator 259 and UFC Vegas 27, and key headlines in the MMA world. Then, as a tribute to my friend, Dr. Tori Strong, who passed away on May 13, 2021, we replay my telling of our first meeting from Episode 11 of Combat Sports Talk.
