The reason I'm giving next week's match to Diego is based on the two fighting backgrounds. Koscheck is an amatuer wrestler, no matter how much mma training he's had since he was a wrestler (which isn't that much afaik), his very first priority is to stay off his back. I garauntee it. A wrestler is always concerned with his positioning, his balance, and most importantly that his back is not touching that mat.

On the other hand you've got Sanches, a submission fighter (and same with Florian and his brazilian jujitsu), they don't care what position their body is in, they can make you tap on their back, on their knees, on their side, it just doesn't matter.

Koscheck will get a good takedown or two, but once they're down Sanchez will dominate.
