Diego Sanchez, one of the winners of the first season of Ultimate Fighter, claims that his loss to Myles Jury at UFC 171 was due to food poisoning that he got as a result of eating beef tartar with a raw quail egg as an appetizer at dinner after weigh-ins.
After his loss to Jury, who is now 14-0, Sanchez tweeted, “I wasn’t my self last night I sustained Food poisoning from eating a beef tar tar with raw quail egg as a appetizer at dinner.” He followed his first tweet up by tweeting, “This was my own mistake I ordered it thinking I need red meat but raw was the wrong choice, I threw up first at at 2am & all day fight day.” He finished by tweeting, “This was not part of @TheDolceDiet I screwed my self! I thought because I had done everything do perfect I could sway a little & it cost me,” and then posted a link substantiating his claims in a subsequent tweet.
Sanchez had been 17-0 until he lost to Josh Koscheck at UFC 69 is now 3-5 in his last eight fights. He remains optimistic despite his recent setbacks, as he tweeted on Sunday, March 16, 2014, “I’m heart broken and very very motivated it hurts so bad. I’ll be back better than ever!”
