No. 2 in the UFC lightweight division rankings, Corey Sandhagen, has spoken out about a fight with tenth-ranked Umar Nurmagomedov.

It was previously announced that these fighters would meet on August 3 at a tournament in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

"At this stage of my career, I no longer want fights with my participation to last the whole distance. During my downtime, I've done some serious work to add power to my hands. I've also worked on a couple of techniques to tear people apart.

I'm usually confident before a fight, but now I'm not just confident - I know I'm capable of hurting him. It will be great to show my skills to the world," the American said on The MMA Hour show.
