The Juggernaut meets the Dream!

Diego “The Dream” Sanchez will meet Jake “The Juggernaut” Ellenberger on the 15th February in Omaha in the main event of UFC: Sanchez vs. Ellenberger, with the victor getting one step closer to a shot at the welterweight title.

Ellenberger comes off a first round TKO demolition of Jake Shields last September, and is on a run of 5 straight wins, his last loss coming at the hands of the new interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit in a close split decision.

Sanchez, a winner of the very first Ultimate Fighter series is a true fan favourite, probably due to the epic bloody battles he tends to get embroiled in. His last war was the fight of the night win against Martin Kampmann in March of last year.

Sanchez holds four fight of the night awards and even won fight of the year for his 2009 brawl against Clay Guida.

Expect blistering pace, expect blood and expect Sanchez to put on a show!
