SAN ANTONIO – For as intentionally corny as his UFC on ESPN 43 post-fight callout was, Cory Sandhagen says it came from a place of honesty and respect.
Following his victory Saturday at AT&T Center, Sandhagen (17-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC) didn’t call for a title shot, no. He called out No. 1 bantamweight in the official UFC rankings, Merab Dvalishvili (16-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) instead.
“Merab, you’re hungry? Well, I’ve got something for you to eat and it don’t taste good,” Sandhagen yelled into the microphone during his in-cage winner’s circle interview.
