The existence of the flyweight division in the UFC was under scrutiny for a long period of time. White and the rest of his team were considering scrapping the division altogether. However, with the emergence of stars such as Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo, the division has been brought back to life. Brandon Moreno won the belt earlier this year with a dominant display against the champion Deiveson Figueiredo. ‘The Assassin Baby’ now has his eyes set on defending his title and has a few names in mind. Notorious one? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/ufc-mma-news-conor-mcgregor-general-trivia-quiz-how-well-do-you-know-the-notorious-one/] In a recent interview, Moreno shared a list of names that he was interested in. He said, “It’s obvious Figueiredo wants the next one because he lost the last one. But man, the last fight, I dominated him, in the first round, in striking, in grappling, in wrestling, so obviously I’m open to fight again with him. But I think he needs to fight with somebody. Cody Garbrandt wants to come in to the division… I know he’s not in the best part of his career, but he’s a good name. He’s a former champ. He has a really good brand behind him. He’s an option.” ‘The Assassin Baby [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/Brandon-Moreno/]’ continued, “Right now, I’m thinking about going back to the gym. I’ll be prepared for October or November. I think November is better. I don’t care the name. I just want to fight in that month.” a Challenge to Islam Makhachev [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-if-you-have-a-problem-we-can-fight-in-september-dan-hooker-issues-a-challenge-to-islam-makhachev/] WHO SHOULD BE NEXT FOR CHAMPION BRANDON MORENO? There is a lot of momentum gathering behind Cody Garbrandt vs Brandon Moreno for the flyweight title. While ‘No Love’ is a big name in the sport and would mean a big payday for Moreno, Garbrandt [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cody-garbrandt/] is 1-4 in his last five fights. Therefore, giving him a title shot does not make sense. Additionally, Askar Askarov [https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Askar-Askarov-149255], currently on a three-fight win streak, has looked impressive in all of his wins. Moreno said he would be willing to fight him. However, as Askarov is currently nursing an injury, he will not be able to fight in November, which is when the champion intends to fight. Therefore, the challenger spot is up for grabs. It will be interesting to see who the UFC matches up against Moreno. 

UFC Flyweight champion Brandon Moreno shares what is next for him. States he is
open to fighting former bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary and Endorsement</h2>
Cody Garbrandt is a former UFC bantamweight champion. He is well known for his spectacular knockouts, especially his dominating win over Dominick Cruz.

The American fighter had a <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2696276-cody-garbrandt-is-living-the-dream-how-ufcs-new-stud-got-his-superpower" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">troubled</a> childhood. He grew up watching his brother constantly fighting. His father was a drug addict who spent most of his time in prison. Consequently, his parents separated when he was one-year-old. He was then adopted by his mother's now ex-husband.

Cody and his brother got involved in boxing through their uncle. Unfortunately, Cody's mother thought boxing was too dangerous for the latter. Hence, he transitioned to wrestling. Meanwhile, Garbrandt convinced his mother to let him box. He had a successful amateur boxing career with a record of <a href="https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/21780-cody-garbrandt-no-love" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">32-1</a> record. Cody also placed fifth during his senior year in a national tournament. He <a href="https://codygarbrandt.com/whoiscodygarbrandt/#:~:text=While%20in%20high%20school%20during,focus%20to%20boxing%20over%20wrestling." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">received</a> All-American honors for that.

Garbrandt received offers from DI schools, but he opted for a D2 instead. Eventually, he dropped out and began selling weed, worked as a bouncer, and completed coal miner training.

[caption id="attachment_466260" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-466260" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1247559992.jpg" alt="Cody Garbrandt" width="1920" height="1341" /> LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - JUNE 06: (L-R) Cody Garbrandt battles Raphael Assuncao of Brazil in their bantamweight bout during the UFC 250 event at UFC APEX on June 06, 2020 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)[/caption]

He then committed to MMA and amassed an amateur record of 6-2. Cody made his pro debut on December 29, 2012, a fight in which he knocked out his opponent within one round. As of 2021, he is #3 in the UFC bantamweight <a href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rankings</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"></sup>
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: UFC Career</h2>
After racking up a 5-0 record, Cody made his way into the UFC. He won his first five fights in dominating fashion and earned himself a title shot against one of the greatest bantamweights of all time, Dominick Cruz.

Garbrandt looked untouchable against Cruz. 'No Love' had an answer for every move of Cruz. In fact, he mocked Cruz throughout the fight and knocked him down multiple times. By the end of the fifth round, there was no doubt that Garbrandt was the new champion.

[caption id="attachment_466258" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-466258" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-630705666.jpg" alt="Cody Garbrandt" width="1920" height="1321" /> LAS VEGAS, NV - DECEMBER 30: Cody Garbrandt (center) reacts to his victory over Dominick Cruz in their UFC bantamweight championship bout during the UFC 207 event at T-Mobile Arena on December 30, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images)[/caption]

Unfortunately, his reign did not last long. Cody Garbrandt's ex-best friend TJ Dillashaw defeated him in the next bout. One year later, Garbrandt tried to reclaim his belt in a rematch but failed.

After losing twice to Dillashaw, Garbrandt fought Pedro Munhoz. Like his previous two fights, Garbrandt's emotions got the better of him. He was drawn into a firefight, which he lost. At this point, he was on a three-fight skid and was desperate to prove himself in the octagon.

After a year off, Cody Garbrandt returned to the cage at UFC 250 to fight Raphael Assunção. Cody showed a completely different version of himself in the fight. He knocked out Assuncao in the second round with a devastating shot. He holds a record of<a href="http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/d8c7c61b176e3994" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> 7-3</a> in his UFC career.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Fighting Style</h2>
Speed is Cody Garbrandt's biggest asset. Apart from that, he has arguably the best boxing in the bantamweight division. His head movement and footwork can be a lot of trouble for his opponents.



Garbrandt's wrestling background helps him fend off takedowns. 'No Love' has one of the best takedown defense. As of now, his takedown defense is at 100%, nobody in the UFC has taken him down yet.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Achievements</h2>
Besides being the former UFC champion, Garbrandt was the OHSAA 112 lb <a href="https://peoplepill.com/people/cody-garbrandt" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DII State Champion</a> and<a href="https://www.mmafighting.com/2017/1/7/14181306/mma-fightings-2016-breakthrough-fighter-of-the-year-cody-garbrandt#:~:text=MMA%20Fighting's%202016%20Breakthrough%20Fighter,Year%3A%20Cody%20Garbrandt%20%2D%20MMA%20Fighting" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> 2016 </a>Breakthrough Fighter of the Year.

He has won the Performance of the Night and Fight of the Night bonuses two times each. He holds a proud record of <a href="https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Cody-Garbrandt-50381">12-3-0</a> in his MMA career.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Net Worth and Salary 2021</h2>
Cody Garbrandt has an estimated net worth of $1 million according to <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/mma-net-worth/cody-garbrandt-net-worth/">Celebrity Net Worth</a>. He has earned around $1,623,600 in his UFC career alone, according to <a href="https://thesportsdaily.com/2020/06/07/cody-garbrandt-career-earnings-fox11/">The Sports Daily</a>. However, these figures do not include undisclosed bonuses.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Endorsements 2021</h2>
