Not only is Cory Sandhagen one of the best bantamweights in the world, he might also have a future in slapstick comedy. In a recent video uploaded to Instagram, 'The Sandman' was fighting ninjas trying to kill him in the showers - as one should.
The video was a promotion of the 10th-anniversary sale of Sheathe Underwear, one of Sandhagen's long-standing sponsors. The video was hilarious as the fourth-ranked UFC bantamweight explained to his friend that he showers in his Sheath underwear because ninjas might come to attack him while doing so.
What happened next might make you laugh. Here's the video:

Cory Sandhagen lost title eliminator to Umar Nurmagomedov at UFC Abu Dhabi
Before fighting ninjas in his home, Cory Sandhagen was last seen battling No.2-ranked Umar Nurmagomedov in Abu Dhabi for a high-stakes title eliminator bout. With Nurmagomedov highly expected to use his wrestling against the striking specialist in 'The Sandman', he surprised everyone by being competitive on the feet.
Still, the bout was tightly contested with the Dagestani receiving a unanimous decision nod from the judges and a guaranteed world title shot in the future. Sandhagen, always gracious in defeat, took to Instagram to address the loss, saying:
"Tough sport. Umar is really world-class - it was an honor to fight one of the world’s best. Congrats to him. Gonna keep getting better like I always do. Thanks for the support. I love you guys. PEACE."
Both Umar Nurmagomedov and Cory Sandhagen will have their eyes glued to their TVs this weekend, as Noche UFC 306 will have Sean O'Malley will put his UFC bantamweight belt on the line against Merab Dvalishvili. Nurmagomedov will find out who will he fight for the belt while Sandhagen will have a new target to work his way towards.
