Former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar had his quest for the bantamweight belt sidetracked when Cory Sandhagen knocked him out at UFC Vegas 18 last week.
Sandhagen blasted Edgar with a flying knee 28 seconds into their fight. He laid the former champion out cold.
Edgar awoke from the shot, stood for the official result, and walked out of the Octagon. But he didn’t remember any of it.
In a recent interview with ESPN’s Brett Okamoto, Edgar said that he didn’t really start coming around until he was in the back dressing room area of The Apex. Even then, however, he didn’t know what had happend.
