Diego Sanchez has now started propagating peace in the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian crisis. Sharing his love for both sides, Sanchez suddenly called for an end to the war in what appeared to be another bizarre Twitter rant. 'Nightmare' wrote:
"I love Russians and I love Ukrainians y’all choose war I choose love f**k that war it’s ridiculous"
Sanchez is known to have gone off on random Twitter sprees in the past. Right before promoting peace between Russia and Ukraine, 'Nightmare' had absurdly claimed to be famous without even trying. The 40-year-old wrote:

Diego Sanchez was unceremoniously released from the UFC in April last year amidst talks of a clash against Donald Cerrone. Sanchez's release came after his controversial coach and mentor Joshua Fabia refused to provide medical documents related to the fighter's health.
Despite being offered a deal by BKFC, Sanchez chose to sign on to Khabib Nurmagomedov's Eagle FC. 'Nightmare' came up on the short side of a unanimous decision against fellow veteran Kevin Lee in his Eagle FC debut. The 40-year-old still has two fights remaining on his current Eagle FC contract.
Diego Sanchez backs up Uriah Hall's claims about ring girls being paid more than fighters
Former UFC middleweight Uriah Hall is scheduled to make his boxing debut against Le'Veon Bell on the undercard of Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva. Speaking at a press conference for his upcoming fight, 'Prime Time' claimed that ring girls make more money than a lot of fighters in the UFC.
"I know people that are making $10,000 to show, $10,000 to win, which is ridiculous because you're going out there and fighting and you're putting your brain cells on the line and f**king ring card girls are making $70,000, which is utterly f**king ridiculous," said Uriah Hall.
Diego Sanchez backed up Hall's claims by uploading a post on his private Instagram account. Calling for better fighter pay, 'Nightmare' wrote in the comments:
“Sex sells but so does blood and the entertaining of the people with all the risk on the fighter. With death and bodily harm as the risk I think we fighters should take more of the cake! But all fighters know why ring girls get paid so much.” h/t Sportskeeda
