They robbed Cory of the W that fight. Dillashaw was just hugging and clinging to him, throwing baby knees and foot stomps, and got busted tf up. Cory pieces him up.
@@ssglbc1875 *Sandhagen Nurmagomedov. Ya it sucks they're both fighting wrestlers next. We just need Omalley and Sandhagen to either both win or both lose their next fight, for a likely matchup.
People are admiring his striking but I’m in awe of his defense. He has incredible eyes. Always sees attacks coming, rolls, evades or blocks. Never takes any damage.
@@Nick_Valentine2702 there was a time when I thought he had Condit’s TDD too, but I’m glad he’s actually trying to shore that up and mix it up by being a genuine takedown threat himself.
I was just telling my friends about that. It pisses me off so much, they stole the decision from Cory to give it to a guy who hasn’t fought in forever just to retire in his next fight. That decision completely changed the career path of Cory, he might even have been champion by now.
@@AnthonyGonzalez-zy5zm now that I think about it, business wise would of been a hard fight to sell Cory vs Aljo again. Not that it’s fair. But I think the ufc might have swayed the judges.
@@AnthonyGonzalez-zy5zm He went on to fight Piotr Yan for the #1 spot/interim belt right after that robbery, so no, it didn't change his career too much, losing fair and square to Yan is what made his path a lot harder than it would otherwise be tbh
In a sport with brawlers and walking punching bags, Corey Sandhagen sure does use a high level of cognitive effort when he makes his split second lethal decisions during his fights.
Feel like this is also his biggest weakness though bro has too much fun out there; like when Tj was punching him with his back turned I just KNOW Cory was trying line him up for a spinning elbow but he gave up because TJ was just punching him 😂.
Man stop it, ferguson never had this type of striking ever I dont really understand the comparision, people said before that oliveira vs islam is tony vs khabib 2.0, i dont really see it They're very different type of fighters
Ever since the TJ/Yan decisions back to back Cory has entirely abandoned the take 3 or 4 blocked shots to land a clean one strat and I love it lol entirely negated Song, Font, and Chito without throwing away rounds. Assuming he can avoid the big dink donk from Umar, he should masterclass it and make the suga fight undeniable
Cory is a legend. He has won multiple muay thai world championships and has fought some of the most savage men on earth one of them being rod tang. Hope he goes far im the ufc they really don't know who they f****** with
That Lineker/Sandhagen fight was W I L D. Somebody in a UFC conference room like "what if we make a honey badger fight a velociraptor?" Everybody else like "WTF," Dana says "keep talking..."
Flowing into constant offensive attacks regardless of position shows his creativity. Allows him to be more free in the striking. Against Umar though idk. Those guys are so good at winning from dominant positions it will just be so difficult to win a decision and these guys just don’t get put in danger a lot.
I reckon Umar will lose or win in a close fight. I think he has future champ material I just think him vs corey right now is competitive but slightly favours Sandhagen
U can tell this dude is not using any drugs cuz the shots he’s landing on sum people and they just take it is crazy like They have to be using some type of enhancement to just walk through these shots
He is super creative with his striking, but he is also super long and rangy compared to these fighters, I think I would love to see him face o’maley just cos of the style matchup but also whether sandhagen is as good on his feet as he looks against much shorter strikers
flying knee sprawl reverse triangle INSANE!!!
He won that fight
@@TheMMAKasualabsolutely
inverted not reverse. reverse is from the back control
They robbed Cory of the W that fight. Dillashaw was just hugging and clinging to him, throwing baby knees and foot stomps, and got busted tf up. Cory pieces him up.
If only he got the finish, I think masvidal had that happen to him. Also reminds me of DJ vs ray borg
Cory the GameStop employee
The fact that O’Malley has been champ for a year and we haven’t seen him and Cory irks me to my soul.
@@MiddleChildFPS it’s a crime actually. If we somehow don’t get it I’ll forveer be sad about it. The fight I want to see the most of all ufc
@@MiddleChildFPS Cory had to recover his tricep
@@WoundedWabbajack they weren’t gonna give it to Corey over merab sadly
@@MiddleChildFPS I really hope he beats merab and Corey gets a title shot
Sandhagen Omalley is the fight we want to see
💯💯
It sucks that we’ll be getting sandHagen Merab but maybe if suga wins the belt back we’ll see

Sandhagen Yan is the tastiest striking fight ever
first fight to truly make me sweat lol
short notice in Abu Dhabi too
Goddamn right.
Sandman V Omalley might have a word for you brother
He's like an evolved Carlos Condit. Long, dynamic kickboxer who's not afraid to use his entire toolbox in combinations.
Has condits chin and conditioning too
Very good comparison, I’d say Cory has better takedowns but their styles are very similar
@@Nick_Valentine2702 there was a time when I thought he had Condit’s TDD too, but I’m glad he’s actually trying to shore that up and mix it up by being a genuine takedown threat himself.
imagine cory with o malley power on his hands, he would prob be champ rn
Still angry about the Dillashaw decision. Giving TJ the win for holding Sandhagen to the Cage despite getting beat up.
One of the worst decisions I’ve seen. Made no sense. Tj got fucked up.
@@Seanb33ee Even the matchmakers treated it as a win for Cory by giving him a fight again Yan right after it

Bro decided to feint and switch stances for 5 rounds
Lineker was like a mini heavyweight. Now he definitely hits as hard as one with all those steroids at ONE FC 😂
Americans can't understand Natural Power.
Why say that bro. You throw a jacket on the guy? Proof?
@@MisterJMills_978hush tweaker
You say this like is any different on the ufc lol
@@renansilva8558there is, they can get away with a lot more over their at one fc, all you gotta do is look at the builds over their
In a sport with brawlers and walking punching bags, Corey Sandhagen sure does use a high level of cognitive effort when he makes his split second lethal decisions during his fights.
Cory Sandhagen gonna break the Dagasteni script and KO Umar trust
I am betting my house on Umar. We obviously would hate that
lol no he's cousins with Khabib he's going to crotch sniff him the whole fight like Khabib did Connor and win by decision
@@iamcobra5297he’s like -300. Not a good bet 😂
💯 I’m with you man. Cory’s a beast Umar ain’t ready imo
Im saying a similar outcome to islam vs dustin. A very tough fight for both. Umar wins via more control???
Dude fights like ufc 4
Always fascinated me about him how well rounded he can be. Great striking AND wrestling
Very nice selection of moments, good job
chito definitely didn’t deserve that title shot lol
Him and Whittaker are probably my two favorite fighters right now
They’re both in similar situations too, cleaning out their divisions as non-champions.
Good taste ❤
Fun fact, it actually says Mentally Healthy Tony Ferguson in his passport.
He"s the definition of what being underrated means
One of my favorite current active fighters, hands down.
And a capoiera kick too! Hell yeah
I love guys like him who go to war every single fight.
I can't believe nobody talks about the flying knee to reverse triangle vs. dillashaw... my jaw DROPPED when I saw that live
Don’t forget about the INSANE armbar escape
The Lineker fight was the first fight of his I saw live and I’ve been a fan since
Gonna be the Suga show before long.. gonna be pure heat.
Cory Sandhagen is one of my favorite fighters. he does not have many holes in his game. well rounded fighter and superb conditioning!
It always sucks that he comes all the way to title challenger, lose and have to fight his way back to the top for like 5-6 fights.
He can't finish fight. It's cool to be flashy, but if you can't end rounds it doesn't matter.
Feel like this is also his biggest weakness though bro has too much fun out there; like when Tj was punching him with his back turned I just KNOW Cory was trying line him up for a spinning elbow but he gave up because TJ was just punching him 😂.
This fight is gonna be the Bantanweight version of Khabib vs. Tony.
crazy that umar did better on the feet
Man stop it, ferguson never had this type of striking ever
I dont really understand the comparision, people said before that oliveira vs islam is tony vs khabib 2.0, i dont really see it
They're very different type of fighters
I agree his style is pretty good.
Too bad we never got him vs dominik cruz

Sandhagen Omalley is gonna be nice
@@ripevanwinkle494 not anymore lol
@@powerball200 U think Sean is gonna defend against Merab and Umar? He is losing that belt
I want to see him vs O'Malley bad
Cory is a legend. He has won multiple muay thai world championships and has fought some of the most savage men on earth one of them being rod tang. Hope he goes far im the ufc they really don't know who they f****** with
That Lineker/Sandhagen fight was W I L D. Somebody in a UFC conference room like "what if we make a honey badger fight a velociraptor?" Everybody else like "WTF," Dana says "keep talking..."
Cory fights like he's in the video game
Crazy how Sandy exposed Chito and the UFC MK Ultra'd the fanbase into thinking O'Malley did it.
he doesnt nearly half of the praise he deserves. Super smart and entertaining
Yea i may have to watch more of sandhagen
One of my favorites to watch put on some work
The jabs followed by the lunging elbow wowwwwww. This guy has 4 arms and 5 legs.
He’s got that Tony creativity before Justin knocked it out of him
unless hes fighting a dagi in the middle east, then he only throws feints for 25 minutes
He reminds me of Dominic Cruz they way he moves and angles around
He fights like Anderson Silva without the head movement and dodging.
Sandhagen is really tall for the division
The match i wanna see is him vs o malley
Flowing into constant offensive attacks regardless of position shows his creativity. Allows him to be more free in the striking.
Against Umar though idk. Those guys are so good at winning from dominant positions it will just be so difficult to win a decision and these guys just don’t get put in danger a lot.
Umar vs Cory is gonna be a banger this week
He fights how everyone thinks they look when they fight
We're gonna see masterclass from Cory, lot of people glaze Dagestanis and UFC jumps them up in the rankings way too much
Still cant believe those judges gave it to Dillaroid. Highway robbery
This man needs to win that belt I've been following his journey since before the UFC. Please beat the Dagestani curse 🙏
Corey Sandhagen vs Zabit Magomedsharipov
One of those great fights that never happened
he lacks grappling , he will get dominated
He learnt from McGregor and Pettis
Thinking man’s Tony Ferguson
Corey hit that man with the same spinning backfist Petr Yan hit him with.
@@chicnoir29 what happened??
Can't believe they gifted TJ that fight... he got whooped
He won the Dillashaw fight for sure
i thought i had seen it all until i seen a thigh jab🤣🤣
Cory kinda looks like Linus tech tips with a beard lmao
Sandhagen beat tj, that decision was so dumb
Definitely. The fact that TJ got a title shot off that and then wasted it makes it more messed up
Man i could not agree more, we were watching it with my friends and we were pissed of by the shitty judging
Where was this against Umar
Lol, just shows how good Aljo is to have beat him the way he did
Sean Omolley wouldn't have made it to the top without UFC's help. He's a fabricated champ.
He fights kind of like a prime Ferguson.
People were saying he's a boring fighter after that one fight against Rob Font. That is seriously the height of recency bias.
Cory is going to KO Umar. Trust!!
Kinda reminds me of a younger hyper version of Carlos Condit.
Him vs Omaliy would be interesting
Weird style .. i like it
Other than jon jones meeting sandhagen my dream he is the man.
cory is awesome
God i hope Cory can beat Umar and fight O'Malley next
Dude. Sandhagen Talbott would be a banger
I love the sandman
Sorry cory u RIP man
Umar is good but i hope cory wins so we can have sandhagen vs O'Malley. What a fight it would be
Sean is losing his next fight though lol
Don’t forget he destroyed Chito way before Omalley
He use to fight cool
Pillow everything
he definitely beat TJ Dillashaw
Cory won the tj fight ifgaf what the judges say
Bro lineker fights like pitbull
No Aljo highlights?
That’s cold.
O’Malley sleeps Sandhagen 💤
Nobody has slept Sandhagen. I doubt either of them would get a finish. Probably a close decision
@@Nick_Valentine2702 I don’t think Sandhagen would stand and trade with O’Malley, which would be the only reason he don’t sleep 😴
1:02 😮
Yoinks Scoob...
I reckon Umar will lose or win in a close fight. I think he has future champ material I just think him vs corey right now is competitive but slightly favours Sandhagen
U can tell this dude is not using any drugs cuz the shots he’s landing on sum people and they just take it is crazy like They have to be using some type of enhancement to just walk through these shots
Gonna get submitted in r1
Bruh that happened once, to fuckin AL-JO! Cory gonna beat Umar 49-46
1:03 its such a beautiful combination
He is super creative with his striking, but he is also super long and rangy compared to these fighters, I think I would love to see him face o’maley just cos of the style matchup but also whether sandhagen is as good on his feet as he looks against much shorter strikers
Vera is a fairly tall striker and Sandhagen fought him fine. Then again, Vera is also a low output guy.
To be fair, of course hes gonna look good against smaller dudes, i beat he struggles at 145 or with a striker his size
Damn, he fucked up Dillashaw.
🐯 Tiger knee
Let's be real he beat dillashaw
Cory’s nickname should be Gaara instead of sandman
No way he did the saenchai kick lol. Okay what move does this guy not know lol
