Both Petr Yan and Cory Sandhagen are coming into this bout after suffering a loss in their last fight. Speaking about their recent fights, Yan lost his bantamweight belt to Sterling at UFC 259 via disqualification. Meanwhile, Sandhagen was defeated by TJ Dillashaw by a close split decision.

Moving forward, let us take a look at the styles of both of these fighters. The former bantamweight champion is good in all facets of the game. Yan has shown his striking skills in his previous fights against Jose Aldo and Urijah Faber. Besides his striking ability, the Russian fighter is also exceptional on the ground.

Owing to the fact, that he landed seven takedowns against Aljamain Sterling and was completely dominating him before landing an illegal knee that led to his downfall. So one can assume that he would have a similar gameplan against Sandhagen as well.

On the other hand, Cory Sandhagen is a brilliant striker that can deal a lot of damage to his opponent. His recent fight against Dillashaw is a great example because he out-landed him on significant strikes and put TJ in a massive amount of trouble. However, Sandhagen’s only weakness is his ground game. This was one of the main reasons why Cory suffered his two losses in the promotion. 

So one can anticipate Petr Yan to go with a gameplan of controlling Cory on the ground. Therefore it is very likely that Yan would get his hands raised by the referee after five rounds of action. Regardless of the result, fans can expect a thrilling contest between these two highly skilled bantamweights
