The main event will be host to an intriguing bantamweight matchup between former interim title challenger, Corey Sandhagen and one of the best young talents the UFC has to offer in 24-year old Song Yadong.
Sandhagen is coming off two back-to-back losses, but both have been extremely competitive affairs against two former 135lb champions in Petr Yan and T.J. Dillashaw. Before this skid, Sandhagen had produced some highlight-reel performances knocking out both Marlon Moraes and Frankie Edgar within five months. Sanhagen also holds credible wins over Raphael Assuncao, John Linekar, and Mario Bautista.
Sanding opposite ‘The Sandman’ will be the highly touted Yadong, who has been competing in the UFC since he was just 19 years old. The Chinese 135lber already has some impressive names on his record such as Marlon Vera and Casey Kenny and most recently savagely knocked out a former title challenger in Moraes.
In the co-main, No.8 Giga Chikadze and No.12 Sodiq Yusuff are set to do battle over three rounds. Chikadze will hope to continue the form he was on before he met Calvin Kattar, who would hand him his first loss in the UFC. Before this bout, the 33-year-old Georgian held a seven-fight win streak, capped off by back-to-back knockout victories over Cub Swanson and Edson Barboza.
Dana White Contender Series Alum, Yusuff will now have the chance to jump into the top-10 rankings in what is the biggest fight of his career. ‘Super’ Sodiq holds a 5-1 record in the UFC, having only lost to Arnold Allen but would bounce back with a win over Alex Caceres back in March.

Giga Chikadze knows that he and Chan Sung Jung don’t speak the same language, but he believes the two fighters would understand each other perfectly if they step into the cage together.
The issues between the two featherweights date back to when the UFC chose to slot “The Korean Zombie” in as a replacement for Max Holloway to fight featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski. Chikadze had also been lobbying for the matchup, and the Georgian didn’t hesitate to criticize Volkanovski for taking an “easy” fight against Zombie.
Chikadze’s candidacy for the title shot took a hit following his unanimous decision loss to Calvin Kattar, prompting Zombie to hit back at Chikadze on social media after the fight. Zombie ended up losing his title bid against Volkanovski in April, and last week Chikadze formally called him out for a fight.
In a recent interview with The Schmo, the Georgian elaborated on why a fight between him and Zombie makes sense.
“I feel like if he wants to do one more fight, that’s the only option for him,” said Chikadze. “He had a lot to say after my fight, after my last fight, which a lot of people say this and that, but especially Zombie had a lot to say. So I really would love to see him in the Octagon and talk about — you know he don’t speak English and I don’t speak Korean, but we have some language that we both speak. And I believe we can fix it, and talk, and have a little conversation inside the Octagon.”
Chikadze’s loss to Kattar was his first in the UFC, while Zombie’s loss to Volkanovski was his second failed bid at the UFC featherweight title. Both men took a considerable amount of damage in those fights; but given their respective styles a matchup between the two could be compelling.
With Zombie currently #5 and Chikadze #8 in the UFC’s featherweight rankings, the matchup certainly makes sense if either man wants to maintain their status as a top fighter. It also could help clear up the featherweight title picture leading up to the third fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway later this year.
What do you think of Chikadze’s explanation for his call out of The Korean Zombie?

UFC featherweight Giga Chikadze wants a shot at ‘The Korean Zombie’ Chan Sung Jung for his next appearance in the Octagon.
Chikadze is coming off of his first UFC loss against Calvin Kattar in January via a unanimous decision. He and Kattar earned ‘Fight of the Night’ honors and an extra $50k each.
Before the loss to Kattar, Chikadze had been on a roll in the UFC featherweight division. Following a debut win over Brandon Davis in Sept. 2019, he went on a seven-fight winning streak which included finishes over Cub Swanson and Edson Barboza.
Now, Chikadze wants to get back into the featherweight title picture, and he has his eyes on the latest title challenger Jung. Earlier this year at UFC 273, Jung suffered a lopsided defeat to Alexander Volkanovski in his second career UFC title shot.
In a recent tweet, Chikadze pitched a fight with Jung.

— GIGA CHIKADZE (@giga_chikadze) May 18, 2022
“Let’s do this [Korean Zombie],” Chikadze tweeted Wednesday.
Before the loss to Volkanovski, Jung earned the title shot by defeating Dan Ige last June. He earned the fight against Volkanovski after former champion Max Holloway pulled out of his originally-scheduled fight due to an injury.
Jung seemed non-committal on his fighting future just hours after UFC 273. But now he has a chance to earn another big-name win if the Chikadze fight comes to fruition.
Volkanovski will face Holloway later this year in a rescheduled trilogy bout. If Chikadze vs. Zombie takes place, the winner could potentially earn a No. 1 contender fight at the very least.
