Cory Sandhagen was in desperate need of a win, and he got one thanks to a perfectly placed elbow.
Sandhagen (15-4 MMA, 8-3 UFC) had a few issues with a tough and gritty Song Yadong (19-7-1 MMA, 8-2-1 UFC). But a cut over Yadong’s left eye that Sandhagen created with an elbow was too deep for Yadong to continue into the final round. Sandhagen got a TKO finish when the doctor shut things down in between the fourth and fifth rounds.
The bantamweight bout was the UFC Fight Night 210 main event at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
