UFC on ESPN+ 37 Results: Sandhagen Finishes Moraes, Barboza Cruises Past Amirkhani

On Saturday, Oct. 10, the UFC continued its second lengthy stint on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, UAE, hosting its 37th broadcast on ESPN+. The event once again featured no fans in attendance due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the night’s main event, former bantamweight title challenger Marlon Moraes collided with Colorado’s Cory Sandhagen. The Brazilian Moraes aimed to build off a narrow decision victory over former featherweight king José Aldo in December. Sandhagen, meanwhile, looked to rebound from a first-round submission defeat to No. 1 contender Aljamain Sterling in his last outing.

The event kicked off with a preliminary-card stream on ESPN+ at 5 p.m. ET. The night’s main card followed at 8 p.m. ET, also on ESPN+.
