05:29 PM ET 10.26 | Former UFC lightweight and featherweight and current UFC commentator Kenny Florian spoke with UFC.com about his career, why he isn't coming out of retirement and more. Most importantly, he spoke about his one regret: how poorly he fought against Diego Sanchez in the finale of the first 'The Ultimate Fighter'. "If there is one regret, I wish that I came to compete against Diego Sanchez," Florian said. "I feel like I beat myself before anyone else. I feel like I went out there and let the moment beat me. I don't know what would have happened in that fight, but I didn't compete; that was not me out there. I went out there and I was a nervous wreck. Before I knew what was happening, I was mounted and bloodied up. I wish that - if there was one thing I could take back - that I could just go out there and compete, and just fight him."
