Dvalishvili extends congratulations to Sandhagen on his triumph in De Moyne's event
Let's Talk MMA:
C'mon folks, we've got a juicy MMA update for ya! Over the weekend, Cory Sandhagen, the number four bantamweight contender in the UFC, took on Deiveson Figueiredo, the former two-time flyweight champion. And let me tell ya, Sandhagen brought the heat, securin' a dominate TKO victory!
Before the fight, Sandhagen made it clear that an impressive win would earn him a title shot. And true to his word, post-fight, he called out the winner of the upcoming rematch between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O'Malley, set to go down next month.
Now, you might be thinkin', "What about Petr Yan? He's been on a two-fight win streak!" Well, let's not forget about the guy. As for his next opponent, that info's yet to be announced.
Here's the lowdown on Sandhagen's victory: he landed 31 significant strikes in the first round compared to Figueiredo's mere 2. That's a pretty impressive performance, if I do say so myself!
Now, about Yan, no info's available about his title claims or his next fight. Historically, he'd need a high-profile win to re-enter title contention, but that's neither here nor there for now.
Stay tuned for more MMA action, folks! We'll keep you posted as things unfold. And for those who are curious, Sandhagen competes at 135 lbs, not lightweight, just in case there was any confusion.
Alright, that's all from me for now! Until next time, keep it locked and keep it real!
P.S. McGregor's lawyer's are hustlin' to add new evidence to a civil rape case appeal, while the UFC champion shares his intentions to face off with Khamzat Chimaev. Plus, Jack Della Maddalena spills the beans on his plan for the Belal Muhammad fight.
Sandhagen's dominating TKO victory over Figueiredo in the mixed-martial-arts fight has confirmed his ambition for a title shot at the UFC flyweight division, as he called out the winner of the upcoming rematch between Dvalishvili and O'Malley. Despite Petr Yan's recent two-fight win streak, it remains unclear if he will be the next challenger for the title due to the lack of official announcement regarding his next opponent. Cory Sandhagen competes in the bantamweight division, which is not the lightweight division he might have been confused with.
