Mixed martial artist Diego Sanchez, 32, apparently suffered from a case of steak tartare with raw quail egg at SER before he competed at the Ultimate Fighting Championship 171’s lightweight division. The competition took place inside the American Airlines Center on Saturday, March 15, and Sanchez blames his loss to Myles Jury on his dinner at the Hilton Anatole’s top-floor steakhouse, which is run by chef Anthony Van Camp. The MMA pro took to Twitter to complain very loudly about his food poisoning misfortune, even posting the entire menu at SER to prove his point.

If it wasn’t Jury that defeated him, it was definitely raw food.
