John Lineker vs. Cory Sandhagen added to UFC on ESPN+ 1 in Brooklyn

A bantamweight matchup with a pair of fighters with a penchant for stopping fights has been added to next month’s UFC on ESPN+ 1 event.

MMAjunkie today confirmed with a person with knowledge of the booking that John Lineker (31-8 MMA, 12-3 UFC) and Cory Sandhagen (9-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) have agreed to meet at the event, which takes place Jan. 19 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. The event streams on ESPN+.

The booking was first reported by ESPN.com.

“Hands of Stone” Lineker never makes his gameplan a secret – the Brazilian is looking to charge forward and trade punches until someone drops. It’s an approach that has served him well, with Lineker standing at 8-1 in his past nine appearances, with the lone loss in that run coming to current UFC bantamweight champ T.J. Dillashaw.

Meanwhile, Sandhagen made his UFC debut this past January and picked up a second-round win over Austin Arnett in a featherweight fight. He then dropped to bantamweight and picked up a “Fight of the Night” bonus in a wild back-and-forth victory over Iuri Alcantara.

With the addition to the lineup, UFC on ESPN+ 1 now includes:

  • Champ Henry Cejudo vs. T.J. Dillashaw – for flyweight title
  • Rachael Ostovich vs. Paige VanZant
  • Ion Cutelaba vs. Glover Teixeira
  • Allen Crowder vs. Greg Hardy
  • Joanne Calderwood vs. Ariane Lipski
  • Randy Brown vs. Chance Rencountre
  • Alonzo Menifield vs. Vinicius Moreira
  • Geoff Neal vs. Belal Muhammad
  • Donald Cerrone vs. Alexander Hernandez
  • Joseph Benavidez vs. Dustin Ortiz
  • Gregor Gillespie vs. Yancy Medeiros
  • John Lineker vs. Cory Sandhagen
