Representing the United States, Cory Sandhagen competes in the bantamweight division while training out of High Altitude Martial Arts. The switch-stance fighter utilizes a diverse technical base rooted in kickboxing and taekwondo. Throughout his time in the organization, he has faced elite opposition, securing significant victories against veteran names such as Frankie Edgar, Marlon Moraes, and Deiveson Figueiredo. His career is characterized by numerous post-fight bonus awards for his high-level performances inside the octagon.
Entering this contest, the American holds an overall professional record of 18-7-0. His recent activity shows a lack of momentum, as he comes into the event following consecutive losses to Mario Bautista and Merab Dvalishvili. Before those setbacks, he earned a technical knockout win over Deiveson Figueiredo. This result followed a unanimous decision loss to Umar Nurmagomedov and a victory against Rob Font.
