UFC welterweight Diego Sanchez has parted ways with his wellness guru and coach, Joshua Fabia. Sanchez explained he would expand on the separation in due course once he had a chance to collect his thoughts. He’s been associated with Fabia since 2019, and the two have certainly captured the headlines quite frequently.

The news has come as somewhat of a relief to most fans, especially considering how things have been unfolding. However, per MMA Fighting, Sanchez’s attorney, Charles Lakins confirmed that they made the decision for a separation on Thursday. Additionally, he also revealed that they have terminated any power of attorney that Fabia held.

Apart from his rather outlandish training regimes that fans disregarded, things got serious recently. Sanchez was supposed to fight ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone at UFC Vegas 26, however, Fabia’s intervention prevented that from happening. In a recorded call to UFC brass, he shared concerns over Sanchez’s health, and then there was a refusal to comply with requests to review Sanchez’s medical history.

The UFC didn’t feel comfortable going ahead with the proceeding and terminated Diego Sanchez’s contract. What’s more, in the wake of the cancelation, both men claimed that the UFC was out to assassinate them. The MMA community was largely of the belief that Fabia spurred these claims.

Joshua Fabia has refused a request to comment on the matter and his stance on the separation remains unclear. However, Diego Sanchez has gone on record saying that he would remain loyal to his now-former coach and guru.
