Garbrandt then received his first title shot in the UFC, when he challenged then-UFC Bantamweight Champion Dominick Cruz at UFC 207 and eventually went on to win his first World Title by beating Cruz.
However, at UFC 217, Garbrandt suffered his first ever MMA loss when he was knocked out by TJ Dillashaw and lost the Bantamweight Title in his first title defense. The two men then squared off in a rematch at UFC 227, with Dillashaw once again coming out on top by knocking out 'No Love' in the first round of the fight.
The heart of the matter
According to recent reports, former UFC Bantamweight Champion Cody Garbrandt will be making his Octagon return at UFC 235 in Las Vegas, Nevada, as the former World Champion gets set to step back into the cage against Brazilian fighter Pedro Munhoz.
The initial report was first broken by ESPN, who picked up on the story, claiming that 'No Love' will be making his return to the UFC on the 2nd of March. However, as of right now, the official announcement is yet to be made by the UFC.
Munhoz, who is coming off a huge win over Bryan Caraway at The Ultimate Fighter 28 Finale, will look forward to causing another major upset, as he looks to defeat Garbrandt in two months time.
What's next?
UFC 235 takes place on 2nd March, 2019 and so far several notable fights have been confirmed for the PPV. Fighters such as Robbie Lawler, Ben Askren, Holly Holm, and Aspen Ladd have all been confirmed for the event.
And new Light Heavyweight Champion, Jon Jones is reportedly going to defend his newly won title against Anthony Smith as well.
