Cory Sandhagen has been one of the elite bantamweights in the world for at least the last three years. On Saturday at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, though, he took it to another level.
Sandhagen dominated Marlon Vera in every aspect of the game and ended the third-ranked bantamweight’s four-fight winning streak, winning a split decision Saturday in the main event of UFC San Antonio.
Speaking in the cage to the crowd that cheered him on all night, Vera said, “I just couldn’t get it started. It’s OK. No excuses. " Even in the final two minutes of the final round, when it was clear that Vera could only win by finish, he wasn’t able to get going as Sandhagen fired kicks at him from range. Vera spent the final part of the round trying to fend off Sandhagen rather than to pull out a dramatic finish.
