Diego Sanchez praised Clay Guida after their bloody brawl at the Ultimate Fighter Finale on Saturday night.
Sanchez won the brutal fight that saw both fighters drenched in sweat and blood in the decisive third round.
Two of the three judges awarded the third round and the fight to Sanchez.
“The guy has a tremendous chin,” Sanchez said of Guida afterward. “There’s a reason he’s never been knocked out. He’s a machine. He’s an animal. … I love it when a guy’s bleeding on top of me. Call me weird, but it means battle. It means war.”
