Cory Sandhagen Suffers Decision Loss Saturday Night
3 years agoThough he was coming off of a split-decision loss in his last Octagon appearance, Cory Sandhagen was given a huge opportunity to face Petr Yan for the interim title at UFC 267's co-main event on Saturday. Unfortunately for Sandhagen, Yan was the victor via unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 49-46). In 25 minutes of action, Sandhagen actually out-struck Yan by landing 169 significant strikes (172 total strikes), but he only landed one of his six takedown tries on the night. Prior to the back-to-back losses, Sandhagen did score impressive knockouts, showing he has the ability to get big points for fantasy managers, depending on the matchup.
