Former undisputed bantamweight champion, Cody Garbrandt has not forgotten his long-time grudge with fellow former gold holder, Sean O’Malley dating back years ago. And admits the Montana striker is still on his radar, especially with a win at UFC Atlanta.
Garbrandt, who returns this weekend for the first time in over a year, takes on Brazilian stalwart Raoni Barcelos over the course of three rounds in a bid to return to winning-ways.
Most recently opening the preliminary card of UFC 300 in the opening quarter of last year, the Ohio knockout artist came unstuck in an eventual third round rear-naked choke submission loss to ex-flyweight champion, Deiveson Figueriedo.
