Dude's fight IQ is CRAZY GOOD. He reads his opponents incredibly well and sets everything up beautifully. He walks guys into TRAPS. Best examples are the fights vs. Moraes and his last fight, that brutal KO of Frankie Edgar. He mirrors two champions with the way he sets up strikes: Bullet and Rose
@HarambeLives23 true. Dillashaw is brilliant. But he's been inactive and the lack of EPO, the time away etc will add to his lack of flow state. Cory is lethal and will find a way. Have faith brother
This is one of the best videos the UFC channel has made, particularly because of the advice Cory gives about how to perform his signature techniques, when they should be employed, and where exactly to aim. More of these would be great.
He deserved the next title shot, It’s sad what happened in the Aljo v Yam Fight, Cory was next in line, Skilled striking , Mite need more work on the ground but he ain’t bad
Cory wanted this fight though. I think he recognizes that TJ is still a big name in the division and he’s gonna be a big star if he beats Dillashaw convincingly. Titles only mean as much as many PPVs you can bring in. Winning this fight and going on to fight Yan should build a decent amount of hype/views for Cory.
I wouldn't say well rounded, the man's a striker through and through and his striking is most excellent. His wrestling and grappling though isn't the best.
Cody has moved up a few notches in my book after watching this. I am very impressed that he puts such high importance on the jab and left hook. Quite possibly the 2 most important strikes in combat. Well done!
@@Prbkkb Dustin and Tony lost to Michael Johnson, at least give him exposure they don’t even post him and he is a super exciting and cerebral fighter that I’m sure lots of fans will enjoy watching and following
@@theologicalmonochromaticbo2102 lol Sean’s been been defeated more than once all due to him quitting, that mentality mostly always stays with someone and is hard to eradicate.
@@ghostsamongus3370 I was being sarcastic of course he has a loss. But its not a REAL loss. Having your ankle or leg busted to the point of being unable to continue shouldn't count.
I'm honestly blown away with the production quality. It's nice to see UFC taking film seriously and really teaching people how these guys condition themselves and their skills to win. I would love a series called "After the fight" where you talk to the fighters after a loss or win and see their raw emotions. A proper instant interview and the BTS with their loved ones etc. I'd also love to know how the fighter's wives/husbands and kids feel about it, What they go through on a daily basis and how they support their partner while they are attempting to either avoid being beaten or beat someone.
This guy is awesome to watch... precision, technical fighter. Reminds me honestly a bit of Connor McGregor in the way he appears to really focus on aim, timing, and movement. The power might not be there due to his frame, but I like that he knows his strengths and plays to them.
Cory is a gifted athlete and fighter, love his lanky long style in the men bantamweight division, he uses his range, striking and footwork beautifully..
Great explanation of techniques. I'd like to see more of these from top fighters. Cory's liver and body shoots are seamless! Cory's liver shots would make Canelo proud. lol
@@seanmma5771 "Yeah, but Nate would have won if he had 10 more rounds to work with. Nate is a undefeatable god-tier striker like no one has ever seen the longer the fight goes. Nate basically won that fight if Nate had every window of opportunity, like in a 78 round fight. Nate > Leon. Leon could never best Nate." -Nate Diaz fans/Leon haters
The flying knee KO on Edgar is one of the most devastating knockouts I've ever seen. It was one of the few times you actually thought "hoooly shit" and not known if he was going to be ok or not
Cory is probably the best guy to ever come from LFA and start taking out top UFC guys. He deserves only headlining fights or main card only fights from now on. It would be cool if he wins, he fights for a title and then fights Rob Font. That’s an exciting matchup.
It's nice to see that the UFC are promoting Cory.

He's gonna get TJ
Why wouldn't they lol
U talking like he’s a Brazilian 😂😂😂
You can tell Cruz is a big fan of Sandhagen just by how he calls his fights.
They even have a similar voice
@@HWCWTD i was thinking that too
Cory actually said that he took a lot from Dominick’s style. So yeah, I think Dominick sees himself a little bit in Cory.
So fluid yet so technical. His overall standup is beautiful to watch

@Hello Tron the ufc promoted Conor his last fight, I guess Conor is some random bum who can't sell fights with that horrible logic
He's so tall for this division
So does Sean o Malley
He's tall but beatable. Sterling Submitted him last year. I hope Sandhagen beats TJ and then title shot
@@Biohacker99 I would love to see Sandhagen vs O'Malley.
Its gotta also mean harder cuts
@@tmac0152 dreeeam
Absolutely loving how Dom Cruz dyed his hair red and reinvented himself as Cory Sandhagen
He even grew a few inches
Yeah apparentely he traded some muscle for height
He went to the character creator and just played with sliders

I hope Cory does a Frankie on Cheatershaw's orbital bone when he comes in for a takedown.
He will be a elite coach when he retires
He is already one of many elite coaches at High Altitude Martial Arts. Come on in!
@@TheDarkLordLucifer911 naw I don’t live in Colorado
@@bullswillbe5thseed304 You do now!
Used to be my Favorite series hopefully they make more of this
Cory is savage. He's gonna put out a video to teach Dillashaw how to beat him. And then he's gonna proceed to knock Dillashaw out.
They were sparring partners pretty sure they both know eachothers moves

@PJ Rivera I really believe 9/10 times Cory wins that fight. That was the 1 time.
This kid is so well rounded, watching him fight is like listening to a great musician.
I wouldn't say well rounded, the man's a striker through and through and his striking is most excellent. His wrestling and grappling though isn't the best.
Love this dude's natural looking technique. Also, that elbow twist out when he uses the jab. And of course the famous stance switch.
He will be champion. We'll come back to this

Truly don’t understand why y’all don’t promote him more, this dude should be star
Cuz he lost to aljo

@@nolove6962 he’s gonna be on display this week
@@Prbkkb yes indeed 💪🏾
The most important strike in all combat sports is your jab, everything is built off it so get it perfected, quick and precise.
If even the middleweight champion complements your striking, you know you got hands.
Kicks,knees and elbows too
one day when sandhagen vs omalley happens its gonna be one of the best fights of our life.
Agreed. Probably happen on the same card as Jones HW debut in a few years
Lets be real OMalley would get killed by anyone in the top ten lmao this isn’t Kris

Please do more of these!!! Awesome stuff
One of my fav fighter today. So fun to watch.
This is a sick series. Good format! So interesting hearing it directly and with onesty from the fighter himself. Cory has a dangerous style
Can’t wait for this fight. Excited to see TJ back again...
Like the series. It's nice to understand the techniques more in depth. More in future please!
That flying knee of his is a thing of beauty
*EPIC FIGHT FUTURE MATCHUP*
*Sandhagen Vs. O'malley*
This is a dope series! We need more of these with different fighters

Beautiful technical striking...
Props to whoever produced this video; it is simply outstanding work!
one of my favoiurite fighters
Fact that he's tall and he has engineered his style based on that to such a high level is impressive
This fight is gonna be so fucking good.
Wow, good to see the Signature Moves series back.
"long and lanky"
Josh Thomson approves 👍🏾
Cory is a future champion! I’d love to see a title fight after he wins this!
Mma world needs people like Cory and UFC must promote athletes like him.
Flying knee is my favorite finishing move
Cory is a BEAST! Go get that W Bro
Keep this kind of material coming!
This kids a beast. That Edgar highlight is solid gold.

This guy is a really smart fighter. I really like the way he explained his techniques.
Cory taught me how to throw jab,liver shot, and a flying knee thank you sir!
I get shivers watching that knee land on Frankie. Wow.
I missed this series so much
a prime Dominator vs Sandhagen would’ve been amazing
Well rounded. Love watching him
I really hope they turn this into a serie.
Me and Cory used to play sports as kids. All throughout grade school And he's always been tough
TJ be watching this over and over again lol
This content was great! More of this please!!
Sandhagen vs O’Melly is a must in the future.
Sean o'salty is gonna get destroyed by sandhagen.
Cory is a gifted athlete and fighter, love his lanky long style in the men bantamweight division, he uses his range, striking and footwork beautifully..
Glad the UFC is doing this Series again.
He's spectacular to watch
They are finally bringing this back!
That flying knee was sooooo clean 😭
Very good content, i liked especially when it was shown how to throw the liver punch to the body.
Haha that smile on his face since he first said flying knee. 'Bye bye Frankie' in his head all this time for sure .
We need more of this type of video!!!!
More of these again pls
Hell yea the ufc is bringing it back!
Damn... I missed those type of videos
Love these move breakdowns
Great explanation of techniques. I'd like to see more of these from top fighters. Cory's liver and body shoots are seamless! Cory's liver shots would make Canelo proud. lol

The flying knee KO on Edgar is one of the most devastating knockouts I've ever seen.
It was one of the few times you actually thought "hoooly shit" and not known if he was going to be ok or not
Bro I can’t fuckin wait for this fight
My favourite fighter at bantamweight. I hope he get the title shot soon.
I love how its nothing super complicated just the fundamentals
Really dig this series.
Corey Sandhagen vs Sean Omally will b crazy if it ever happens. Im a big fan of both stylistically
It would be fun to watch a suaga vs Corey bout in the future
Cory is probably the best guy to ever come from LFA and start taking out top UFC guys. He deserves only headlining fights or main card only fights from now on. It would be cool if he wins, he fights for a title and then fights Rob Font. That’s an exciting matchup.
Man...it KILLS me to see Frankie hit the deck like that. But u have to admire how perfect it was.
Let’s go they finally brought signature moves back
This dude is an assassin. Cool, calm, collected and a student to his martial art. If he stays disciplined, he will be champ.
Tq UFC.. Very useful breakdown technique
His lineker fight was so good. Watch it if you’ve never seen it
hopefully sandhagen vs omalley someday
This is so fucking dope!!! Keep doing more of these
Great technical fighter.
If cory doesn't get "guys like me" into MMA/UFC I don't know who will.
Sandman is dangerous I hope he comes out and gets another crazy finish.. most exciting fighter in the division aside from MAYBE O’Malley
Cory’s not only gonna be champ but he’s gonna hold the belt for a good while
Not while petr yan is around lol
Great stuff! PLEASE keep it coming!!!
This is gonna be a barn burner. High level MMA, both TJ and Cory are elite.
