Cory Sandhagen

Cory Sandhagen is one of those fighters I genuinely enjoy watching. The Aurora, Colorado native stands 180 cm and competes near the top of the UFC bantamweight division, using a long, high-volume, unorthodox striking game that keeps opponents guessing. The Enter the Sandman nickname suits his flair. Turning pro in 2015 and grinding into the elite of such a stacked weight class is no small feat. What earns my respect is that he stays aggressive and technical at once, never coasting. Bantamweight is a shark tank, and Sandhagen keeps swimming with the best.
