It appears we have the return of no. 4 ranked UFC bantamweight contender Marlon Vera on tap, as he’s just been scheduled to headline UFC Vegas 69 against no. 5 ranked Cory Sandhagen.
UFC Vegas 69 is to go down on February 18, 2023, live from the UFC Apex in Enterprise, Nevada.
Ecuadorian talent Marlon Vera has been on a serious streak as of late, going 10-2 over his last 12 outings, as he comes into this bout on a four-fight win streak. Many believe he should be 11-1 in his last 12 as well, considering his unanimous decision defeat to Song Yadong was heavily disputed.
Nonetheless, following that defeat, he’d TKO Sean O’Malley, before losing to former featherweight champion Jose Aldo.
Since then however, Vera has defeated the likes of Davey Grant (UD) in their rematch to avenge his second promotional defeat, Frankie Edgar (KO), Rob Font (UD), and former bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz (KO).
Then we have Cory Sandhagen, a Colorado native that comes in having gone 3-3 over his last six, following a 5-0 start to his UFC tenure, though, like Vera, many believe he should be 4-2 in that time.
The fourth and fifth victories of Sandhagen’s UFC career came over longtime bantamweight staple Raphael Assuncao (UD) and current ONE bantamweight champion John Lineker (SD), before he was defeated by current UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling (RNC).
Sandhagen then knocked out both Marlon Moraes (TKO) and Frankie Edgar (KO), before losing back-to-back bouts to former champions Petr Yan (UD) in their interim title clash, and then TJ Dillashaw (SD), the latter being quite a controversial outcome.
Sandhagen would follow up those defeats with a doctor stoppage TKO victory over Song Yadong himself back in September.

Off the back of his close, split decision win over former UFC bantamweight champion, Petr Yan earlier this month, newly ranked number one contender, Sean O’Malley is willing to run back his August 2020 loss to the surging, Marlon Vera in an interim title clash, if undisputed champion, Aljamain Sterling elects to remain sidelined until June.
Featuring in a high-profile main card clash against former undisputed bantamweight best, Yan at UFC 280 in Abu Dhabi, UAE earlier this month, Montana striker, O’Malley turned in the biggest victory of his professional career to date – defeating Yan with a clost, split judging effort in the Middle East.
Tipped to compete for a title of some form in his next Octagon outing, the Dana White’s Contender Series product has noted his willingness to share the Octagon with Ecuadorian contender, Vera in a much-rumored rematch, even if he only gets to compete for an interim crown.
“It’s so hard to say, everyone’s different,’ Sean O’Malley said on his YouTube channel. “I get it, Aljo (Aljamain Sterling) cuts a lot of weight. He’s probably already back up to 165-170, he’s probably like, ‘I don’t want to cut weight again in the next couple of months, I want to enjoy it.’ But if you do think… he wants to wait eight months.”
“I get it, I do,” Sean O’Malley said. “But say the number one contender, ‘Suga’ Sean O’Malley is ready to go in March, and the guy in line, in my opinion, should be (Marlon) ‘Chito’ Vera. He just beat Dominick Cruz, beat Frankie Edgar, beat some good guys. Why not have a little interim belt and then the winner of the interim belt fight Aljo when he’s ready?” (Transcribed by MMA Fighting
Initially sharing the Octagon with Vera back in the co-main event of UFC 252 back in August 2020, O’Malley, who then boasted an undefeated record, suffered a first round TKO loss due to ground strikes after suffering from drop foot earlier in the first frame.
