Cory Sandhagen likely would’ve preferred the fans for his main event left the arena after having showered praise and applause on him. Instead, Sandhagen (17-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC) got hit fairly consistently by the boo-birds through much of the final four rounds of his 50-45 sweep of the scorecards against Rob Font (20-7 MMA, 10-6 UFC) in the UFC on ESPN 50 main event in Nashville, Tenn. The fans at Bridgestone Arena let Sandhagen know a finish was going to be appreciated. The finish never came, but Sandhagen said the win went how it was supposed to go, and that was to send a message to future opponents that if they think they can beat Sandhagen by keeping him off the feet, he might just be the one that instigates a ground fight
