Cory Sandhagen is a UFC bantamweight contender who’s had a quick and explosive rise.

Later that year, Sandhagen would inexplicably escape all of Alcantara’s submission attempts only to finish him in round 2.
To kick off 2019, Corey gave us a grappling showcase to submit Mario Bautista in round 1.
His next 2 fights would be huge steps up in competition and Cory would defeat both John Lineker and Raphael Assuncao by decision.
This earned Cory a #1 contedership fight opposite Aljamain Sterling in 2020, but unfortunately for Cory, he would get submitted by the future champion.
But Cory would come back with a vengeance and finish Marlon Moraes with a flashy wheelkick, and then finish legend Frankie Edgar, with a stunning flying knee.
However, Sandhagen would face former champion TJ Dillashaw in 2021, where Cory tore TJ’s knee apart with a heel hook, but lost a VERY close split decision and lose another decision to Petyr Yan for the interim title.
