Cory Sandhagen’s Flying Knee Sent Frankie Edgar into a Stiff Body Corpse Nap

SJ - February 7, 2021

UFC Vegas 18's co-main event between Cory Sandhagen and Frankie Edgar ended with an impressive knockout. The flying knee that ended the fight is the knockout of the year so far.

Sandhagen might have just earned a shot at the UFC bantamweight title by giving Edgar a stiff body corpse nap. The knee was right on the shutoff button and he went down like a ton of bricks.

Holy shit! That's a knockout. Sandhagen is doing all that he needs to. The matter of whether or not he gets a title shot is out of his hands. He's done all he can.
