According to ex-UFC dual weight champion Henry Cejudo, March’s title bout between Petr Yan and Aljamain Sterling will not determine the best fighter in the bantamweight division.
According Cejudo, this fighter – besides himself – is the number two bantamweight Cory Sandhagen, who brutally finished Frankie Edgar in his last fight with a knee jump.
“In my opinion, he is probably the best 135-pound fighter on par with me,” – Henry Cejudo told The Schmo. “But to defeat him, you have to learn how to force a fight on Cory Sandhagen. You have to press him with punches, that’s all. You cannot give this guy space. He is extremely dangerous and not devoid of talent. And if you do not force a fight on him , then he will get you, because the only thing he does best is distance and his composure. These are two things that I pay attention to when I watch a duel. “
