Sandhagen’s Advice for Nurmagomedov on Dvalishvili Rematch

Corey Sandhagen is offering some strategic advice to Umar Nurmagomedov concerning a possible second fight with Merab Dvalishvili.

Sandhagen stated to Luke Thomas, `If I were in Umar`s position for a rematch against Merab, I would definitely control the center of the octagon and be more conservative with my footwork. The fifth round was the deciding factor last time. When facing Dvalishvili, you must either dictate the fight`s rhythm or find ways to conserve your energy.`
