LAS VEGAS – Cody Garbrandt is confident there are better days ahead in his fighting career.
The former UFC bantamweight champion is determined to turn things around and get back to his winning ways. That all starts this Saturday, when Garbrandt (12-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) makes his return against Trevin Jones on the preliminary card of UFC 285 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Garbrandt enters the bout on the heels of two consecutive defeats and a run of 1-5 in his past six fights. It’s not an ideal circumstance to be fighting Jones (13-9 MMA, 1-3 UFC), but Garbrandt feels he’s made the necessary changes to succeed.
