Cory Sandhagen will return to the UFC Octagon this weekend to fight a returning T.J. Dillashaw. A win over the former two-time champion will put Sandhagen in pole position for a title shot next. Dillashaw will look to do the same with a win.

I don’t hate on guys for having that in them,” said Sandhagen.

So I don’t really get too angry about those types of things,” he added.
