Aljamain Sterling vs Cory Sandhagen 6/6/20 – UFC 250 Picks & Preview

UFCThe Bantamweight is going to have another great battle here at UFC 250. The fight features a couple of fighters who have not really lost a lot of fights either in their careers. In fact, between the two fighters they have been involved in 34 fights and they have only lost a total of 4 fights in their career and that could really make for  very interesting fight.

Heading into this fight for Sterling he is using the Orthodox stance, but when it comes to his fighting style he tends to use the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The last fight that he was involved in was a unanimous decision win over Pedro Munhoz. The win pushed Sterling to an 18-3 record and a 2-1 record in the TKO/KO fights and sits at 7-0 when it comes to the submission battle. For his part Sterling is coming into the fight throwing 4.85 significant strikes per minute with an accuracy that is landing at 50.66%.

Cory Sandhagen is coming in using a switch style of fighting stance, but when it comes to his style he is a striker. The last fight that Sandhagen was involved in, ended up going the distance before helanded a unanimous decision win over Raphael Assuncao. The win pushed Sandhagen to a 12-1 record with his record being 4-0 in the TKO/KO fights, but in the submission record Sandhagen sits at 3-0. Sandhagen is coming in throwing a lot more strikes at 7.14 per minute. When it comes to being accurate, though, Sandhagen has only ended up getting 48.94% of those to be accurate.

When it comes to the tape Sterling is heading into the fight standing at 5’7” and weighing in at 135 pounds. Sterling does have a 71 inch reach and that will definitely help him out here. Sandhagen is heading into the fight here standing at 5’11” and 135 pounds, but has a 70 inch reach.

The fight here is one that has a couple of fighters that are going to go the distance, but are evenly matched as well. The switch stance Sandhagen uses will help him out in the fight here. However, neither one of these two fighters are really that strong when it comes to ending the fights early. The fight will come down to the fact that Sandhagen is a taller opponent and keeps Sterling on the ropes before bringing home a win in what I would imagine ends up being a split decision.
