Entering UFC Vegas 32, fight fans had huge expectations for the main event between former champion TJ Dillashaw and the growing Cory Sandhagen.
With Dillashaw coming back from a two-year suspension due to an anti-doping rule violation against one of the division’s most talented fighters at Sandhagen, the winner would catapult himself into the title race.
But after 25 minutes of action, it was Dillashaw who emerged victorious with the narrow split decision victory.
Here’s how the pros reacted to UFC Vegas 32.
Respect to the warrior @TJDillashaw Beating you has always been my goal. It’s my division now

Legit believed that Cory had done a lot more damage, that teardowns didn’t do anything to them and that controlling him against the cage wasn’t a deciding factor, Cory looked cleaner and did more damage. Feel for Cory that was his fight. https://t.co/kSgh1VsrDq

Dude, you can feel the pain in Cory’s voice. I’m not going to lie, I thought it was 2-2 in this round and felt he had the cleanest hits in the last round. But, maybe they’ve factored in the pressure before and TJ’s melee work. In any case, a good fight. # UFCVegas32

I think TJ gets the green light. I wonder if that early cut to his right hand was the one he had earlier in training camp. # UFCVegas32

Thought Cory was gonna get it but kudos to both of you on such a good fight # UFCVegas32
– Dwight Grant (@DwightGrant) July 25, 2021
I think the difference was the wrestling and the control of the cage. These two guys have an incredible strike. I will watch them both fight every time. Thanks for the show boys

Pressure and volume were the key here !!!
– Jamahal Hill (@JamahalH) July 25, 2021
But anyway, Sanhagen is a real deal
He’s a problem for anyone in the division– khabib nurmagomedov (@TeamKhabib) July 25, 2021
Crazy fight, huge victory for TJ. It was a very difficult fight to score. Who do you think won it and why? # UFCVegas32
– Michael Chiesa (@ MikeMav22) July 25, 2021
I told you. You don’t know how the judges will rate this first RD. I should have been a 10-8, but you never know. Savage fight. The two men brought it. Super durable and playful Paige, super smooth Phillips but that style of movement is exhausting. This man of division !!
– Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) July 25, 2021
Great main event co! Enter the matrix
– Platinum Mike Perry (@PlatinumPerry) July 25, 2021
Kyler Phillips is a bantamweight contender regardless of loss # UFCVegas32
– Boston Salmon (@bostonboomboom) July 25, 2021
I love to see Elkins take this victory. No one deserves it more.

Elkins in relentless !!!

The live odds for Maverick vs Barber at the end of the fight were -1200 Mavericks! She lost wow
– Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) July 25, 2021
With. The Dec split was crazy, then Macy Barber won. Wow. Call the cops. Robbery ! Am I wrong ? # UFCVegas32
– Derek Brunson (@DerekBrunson) July 25, 2021
Bartender I’ll have 2 of what the judges drank, who judged the Maycee Barber vs Miranda Maverick fight # UFCVegas32
– Derek Brunson (@DerekBrunson) July 25, 2021
My schedule agrees with me. Maverick won. Hmm maybe they should check if the judges got the two fighters confused. Because when I fought Carla, one of the judges gave her the first round. ♀️ # UFCVegas32
-Tatiana Suarez (@tatianaufc) July 25, 2021
I had this 29-29 Maverick.
– Nina Ansaroff (Nina Ansaroff) July 25, 2021
Good game. Strange decision
– Vince Morales (@ vandetta135) July 25, 2021
2 fights in a row Maycee woke up in the third maybe she needs longer warm-ups before the fight
– Belal Muhammad (@ bullyb170) July 24, 2021
I’m so confused… it turned out super fast. Maybe a little gas, or an adrenaline rush? The body shots and that uppercut were heartbreaking for Yanez! # UFCVegas32
– Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) July 24, 2021
Impressive return from Yanez. Found his rhythm and started pouring it out. # UFCVegas32
– André Fili (@TouchyFili) July 24, 2021
Super scrap! But let’s not forget, Dr. Pepper is fine, but root beer is still the goat! # UFCVegas32
