DOMINICK CRUZ: ANALYSIS Vera is clear that he wants Cruz as his next opponent. So, here is an analysis of Marlon Vera vs. Dominick Cruz if the fight ever comes to fruition. As already mentioned above, ‘Chito’ recently claimed a spectacular decision victory at UFC Vegas 29. Before that, Vera suffered a unanimous decision loss against Jose Aldo at UFC Fight Night: Stephen Thompson vs. Geoff Neal. ‘Chito’ has a spectacular professional MMA record of 17-7-1 [http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/7c7332319c14094c] (6 T/KOs and 8 Submissions). Furthermore, he is good at both standing and on the ground. He is an accurate striker with a good takedown offense and defense. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/mma-ufc-news-ufc-vegas-29-results-6-stoppages-dominate-an-exciting-fight-card-dan-ige-chan-sung-jung/] Meanwhile, Cruz has put together a magnificent professional MMA record of 23-3 [http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/10f3ba6cd2f44a97] (7 T/KOs and 1 Submission). ‘The Dominator’ is a great defensive fighter with an 83% takedown defense and 72% significant strike defense. Cruz is coming off a spectacular split decision victory over Casey Kenney at UFC 259. Before that, he suffered two consecutive losses against Henry Cejudo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/henry-cejudo/] at UFC 249 and Cody Garbrandt [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cody-garbrandt/] at UFC 207. Cruz has more experience than Vera, which might play a huge part in their fight. So Vera would have to give everything he got and put pressure on Cruz throughout the fight. The bottom line is, Vera is an elite athlete. However, Cruz won’t be an easy opponent to defeat. Who would be your pick if Marlon Vera vs. Dominick Cruz ever comes to fruition?

<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.

(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.

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>

<p class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Jose Aldo: Net Worth 2024, Record, Salary, and Career Stats</b></p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Jose Aldo?</strong></h2>
A Bantamweight prodigy in the UFC, Jose Aldo is a Brazillian MMA star. Often regarded as one of the greatest martial artists of all time, also left his mark on the sport, after defending his UFC Featherweight title seven times. Here's a look at Junior's life and fight stats!
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Â Jose Aldoâ€™s early life</strong></h2>
Born on the 9th of September 1986 in Manaus, Brazil, to JosÃ© Aldo da Silva Oliveira Sr. and Rocilene Socorro Souza, Aldo Jr. rose from the favelas of Brazil to superstardom. His initial interest in Football revealed him as an aggressive sportsman, which finally led him to realize the need to join a Capoeira, a Brazilian martial art gym. It is BJJ that caught his attention and later initiated him to the trajectory he walked from thereon!
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Jose Aldoâ€™s Partner and Children</strong></h2>
Jose Aldo has been married to Vivianne Perreira since 2006. The couple are proud parents to a daughter and a son. While their daughter Joanna was born in 2012, their son, whose name has not been revealed to the public was born in 2022.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Jose Aldoâ€™s net worth 2024</strong></h2>
As of May 2024, Jose Aldo's net worth is $10 million. His biggest payout has been at UFC 194 against Conor McGregor at a staggering $2,540,000.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Jose Aldoâ€™s career timeline</strong></h2>
'Junior' made his UFC debut in the year 2011, when he was up against Mark Hominick at UFC 129. He started his career with a win via unanimous decision and won the Fight of the Night award. Furthermore, as he was the WEC featherweight champion, he was awarded the UFC version of the belt too. He defended his belt seven times and earned wins over the likes of Chad Mendes, Frankie Edgar, Kenny Florian, and Chan Sung Jung.

<figcaption>via Imago</figcaption></figure>
He lost his UFC featherweight championship belt toÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/conor-mcgregor/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor</a>?via knockout at UFC 194. His last fight saw him beatÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/Marlon-Vera/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Marlon Vera</a> via a unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night: Thompson vs Neal. Thereafter, Aldo stepped inside the octagon against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pedro-munhoz/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Pedro Munhoz</a>Â atÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ufc-265-lewis-vs-gane/" target="_self" rel="noopener">UFC 265</a>, and Rob Font at UFC Fight Night, and won both via unanimous decision.

Consequently came the end of his 3-win streak against Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 278. And this marked his entry into retirement. But now, Aldo is ready to come back against Jonathan Martinez for UFC 301.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Jose Aldoâ€™s contracts</strong></h2>
Jose Aldo was released from his contract in 2022 and has been a free agent since, or so it seemed. Now, ending his 18-month retirement, he is back for his last fight in the contract and decided to not resign ahead of UFC 301.

In his own words through an interpreter, <em>"Yes, this is the last fight on my contract. When I started talking to Sean and Dana in January, we talked about signing a new deal. But I decided against it because I want to go in there and I need to show them, myself and everyone where I'm at, what I can still do and how I can still perform."Â </em>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Jose Aldoâ€™s career stats and records</strong></h2>
Aldo is one of the most dangerous fighters inside the octagon. The fighter prefers to stay on his feet and has strong punches. He has claimed 17 wins via TKO. As of now, Aldo holds a record of 31-8-0.
