He first fought in the UFC in the early 2000s. He got 3 wins and lost a decision to Matt Hughes. Afterwards he left the UFC and fought in smaller organizations until TUF became famous and he returned to the UFC in 2005.
From 2005 to 2010 he only had 8 fights and yet he was a household name and a star that is still remembered to this day. I for some reason thought he had 20 fights, tons of title defenses and retired winning few fights in a row. But in reality, his second stint in the UFC was not very active and for some reason he is very well known.
Funny enough, tons of fighters in the UFC that have been vets for many years and in Diegos case, over a decade. But whenever Sean fought, he had countdowns and got interviews everywhere and was pretty much on demands in media. But once he left the MMA, he left if on all fronts.
