LAS VEGAS – Fighter and school teacher Cody Gibson continues to grow in confidence as a fighter, and his latest performance in the octagon proved the importance of being a student.
In the final prelim bout at UFC on ESPN 60, Gibson (20-10 MMA, 2-5 UFC) trapped Brian Kelleher (24-16 MMA, 8-9 UFC) in an arm triangle, a submission he admittedly used to “suck” at executing.
Gibson firmly believes in the old-school method of simply getting in the gym and sparring to prepare for fights, and that’s what he did at XTreme Couture.
