Cory Sandhagen took some inspiration from Joaquin Buckley and added his own highlight reel KO to the resume against Marlon Moraes at UFC Fight Island 5.
Sandhagen made himself an instant contender with a second-round spinning heel kick knock out against Moraes on Saturday. Afterwards, he called out T.J. Dillashaw and Frankie Edgar before stating he wants a UFC title shot with a win over the two aformentioned bantamweights. Take a look below at the incredible finish.
