Ahead of the bantamweight main event in Des Moines, Cory Sandhagen has heightened his banter, poking fun at Deiveson Figueiredoâs attributes. Nevertheless, Figueiredo, a former flyweight champion, appears undeterred, attributing Sandhagen's trash talk to a shift in attitude. Figueiredo reflected on his previous fight's performance, emphasizing lessons learned and intending to showcase improved skills reminiscent of software upgrades, like the iPhone's. He intends to handle Sandhagen's reach utilizing a 'Mike Tyson style,' indicating a strategic approach to their octagon showdown on Saturday.
"I think that the joker spirit that lived within me back in the day, just do all this clown stuff, I think it left my body and went into his."
"I learned a lot from my last fight. I'm an aggressive guy, but I wasn't. Quickness and speed was lacking as well."
"I'm a guy that's always just updating things. As the iPhone upgrades their operating system, I do mine as well."
"I'll just keep watching all that nonsense and we'll settle it all in the octagon on Saturday."
