Mickey Gall got back to winning ways last weekend when he submitted George Sullivan. Gall now has his eyes set on some bigger names.

During his appearance on The Ariel Helwani MMA Show recently, Gall revealed why he wants to fight Diego Sanchez next.

“The one I want the most is, I like Diego Sanchez. The guy is a fucking legend, I’d love to fight Diego Sanchez. So that’s the one I’m hoping for. He’s got a fight next, that could get lined up perfectly. So if he wants to do it, I would love to fight a legend like Diego Sanchez. It’s the one I want the most so it’s the one I am pushing for,” he noted. (via MMA Mania)

Sage Northcutt and Randy Brown are two other opponents that interest Gall. He has faced both the fighters in the past. While he picked up a win against Sage, he was handed his first career loss by Brown.
