Mixed martial arts career[edit]

Sanchez has defended that championship against Nathan Torrez and Donald Sanchez and was then awarded the actual KOTC Bantamweight Champion. Sanchez's second fight against Donald Sanchez unified the KOTC Bantamweight titles as, Donald Sanchez had been awarded the Interim title after defeating Stojadinovic in August 2009.
