Sean O'Malley Shares Prediction For Cory Sandhagen vs. Rob Font UFC Fight Night Headliner

With the event drawing closer, the UFC wasted little time finding Sandhagen a new opponent. It'll be Cory Sandhagen vs. Rob Font. Initially, Font was going to fight Song Yadong at UFC 292, but was plucked from the card due to the situation with the Nashville event.

During a new episode of the "TimboSugarShow," Sean O'Malley weighed in on the matchup and revealed his prediction.

"Cory's gonna be a nightmare to fight on short notice," O'Malley said. "Even though Rob was training for Song for a three-round fight two weeks later, still it's like, three rounds, five rounds, I don't know. We'll see how that fight plays out. Early prediction, I got Cory but Rob's no motherf*cking joke."

O'Malley is likely to keep a close eye on this fight despite claiming a win for Sandhagen wouldn't be enough to earn him a title shot. The "Sugar" show feels Sandhagen's lack of business sense is harming his stock.

Time will tell how things shake out in the 135-pound title picture, as O'Malley will be challenging Aljamain Sterling for the UFC Bantamweight Championship on August 19 in the UFC 292 main event.
