Cory Sandhagen turned in a well-round performance against Marlon Vera at UFC San Antonio this past Saturday. After five rounds, the ‘Sandman’ got the nod by split decision. For his next fight, Sandhagen set his sights on a potential No. 1 contender against Merab Dvalishvili.
Here is how Twitter reacted to Vera vs. Sandhagen:
Chito is an animal and Sandhagen is one of my favorite snipers this is gonna be a banger #UFCSanAntonio

Chito is ok with losing 2 rounds because his power carries late I think he’ll pick it up in the 3rd but Cory looks great

Really love watching Vera fight, Sandhagen was just too elusive. Looking forward to seeing them both in action again, Cory vs Merab will break records in the output category. #superboringtweetbutidc
