Many things go on behind the scenes for fighters during a UFC fight week.

Among them is an informal meeting with the TV crew to discuss training camp, preparations for the fight, the opponent and other potential talking points for the broadcast.

Diego Sanchez has been through many of those over the years, to be certain. But at UFC 253 this past September on “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi, ahead of his fight against Jake Matthews, Sanchez brought along his coach, Joshua Fabia, as well as his “Ultimate Fighter 1” castmate Stephan Bonnar, who was in his corner for the fight with Fabia.

And Fabia and Bonnar decided to let the cameras roll – not just during Sanchez’s very standard Q&A session with the broadcast team – including play-by-play voice Jon Anik, analyst Paul Felder, roving reporter Megan Olivi, and pre- and post-fight analyst Angela Hill – but when Fabia decided to take over the meeting to get a few points across about his client.
