Cory James Sandhagen (born April 20, 1992) is an American professional mixed martial artist. He currently competes in the Bantamweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). A professional competitor since 2015, Sandhagen has also competed for Legacy Fighting Alliance. As of August 6, 2024, he is #4 in the UFC bantamweight rankings.[7]

Background

[edit]

Born and raised in Aurora, Colorado, Sandhagen attended Smoky Hill High School where he was on the basketball team – a sport he had been playing from his youth.[8] Sandhagen began martial arts training as a child, starting with taekwondo. His instructors didn't allow punches, so Sandhagen switched to boxing. In kickboxing, Sandhagen won multiple WKA titles including a WKA world title. He then transitioned to mixed martial arts. He had been a fan of the sport since his childhood.[9][10]

Sandhagen graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a degree in psychology.[3][8]

Mixed martial arts career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Sandhagen made his Legacy Fighting Alliance debut on February 24, 2017, at LFA 5 against Jamall Emmers, losing the bout via unanimous decision.[11] His next fight was on October 17, 2017, against Luiz Antonio Lobo Gavinho at LFA 24, which he won via first round TKO.[12] Sandhagen's final appearance for Legacy Fighting Alliance came on January 19, 2018, at LFA 31, defeating Jose Aguayo via first round TKO.[13]

Sandhagen was scheduled to face Thomas Almeida at UFC Fight Night: Cejudo vs. Dillashaw.[19] However, it was later announced that Sandhagen would face John Lineker at the event instead.[20] On January 10, Lineker was forced to withdraw from the bout due to a rib injury.[21] He was replaced by promotional newcomer Mario Bautista.[22] He won the bout via first round submission.[23]

Sandhagen was scheduled to face T.J. Dillashaw on May 8, 2021, at UFC on ESPN 24.[40] However, Dillashaw announced on April 27 that he had to pull out of the fight due to a cut he received from a headbutt in training.[41][42] The pairing remained intact and was rescheduled to headline UFC on ESPN: Sandhagen vs. Dillashaw on July 24, 2021.[43] He lost a close fight via split decision.[44] 17 out of 23 media outlets scored the bout as a win for Sandhagen.[45]
