Sandhagen Is Confident He Can Get Title Shot After Two More Fights Read More

American UFC bantamweight Cory Sandhagen is confident that he can get in a title race by defeating Brazilian fighter Deiveson Figueiredo at UFC on ESPN 67, which will take place on May 4 in Des Moines, Iowa.

Whether O’Malley or Merab wins, I’m the only guy in the top five that hasn’t fought Merab. Then O’Malley is someone people have been begging to have me and him fight for a really long time. The way that I think that I can beat Figgy, I’m pretty sure in my head is going to be a performance that speaks very loudly to me getting a title shot next.

His latest fight was against Umar Nurmagomedov in August 2024 at UFC on ABC 7, where he lost by unanimous decision after going the full distance. His record now stands at 17 wins and five losses.

Figueiredo last entered the octagon to face Petr Yan in November 2024 at UFC Fight Night 248. That match also went the full distance, resulting in Figueiredo’s loss by unanimous decision. He has a record of 24 wins, four losses, and one draw.
