Cory Sandhagen explained the organization of the fight with Umar Nurmagomedov

UFC bantamweight number four, Corey Sandhagen, explained why he agreed to fight Russian Umar Nurmagomedov, who is not in the top ten division.

“Hi all! I know you have seen the announcement – I am fighting Umar Nurmagomedov on August 5, ”the American said in a video posted on a social network. “I get a lot of messages from haters like, ‘Why would you fight someone who is so low in the rankings?!’ They say he’ll kick my ass and blah blah blah…”

“I have two reasons. First of all, Umar is a great fighter and I don’t aspire to be world champion unless I really am the best in the whole world. So the fight with Umar is a big challenge and I accepted it. What’s the second? Yes, because I’m a beast! That’s why! Peace to all and see you in Nashville, motherfuckers!”

Recall that the fight in the bantamweight division between Cory Sandhagen and Umar Nurmagomedov will be the main event of the UFC Fight Night 225 tournament, which will be held on August 5 in Nashville.
