If Cody Gibson had stuck to his original plan, he'd be a retired fighter right now. Instead, he's back in the UFC, and he’s looking to make the most of his second chance on the big stage.
The UFC bantamweight, who had fought four times in the Octagon in a year between February 2014 and February 2015, admitted that he had everything planned out in advance, but a series of events saw him take a different path, and now he’s ready to make a second run in the UFC's 135-pound division.
Chatting to UFC.com ahead of his return at UFC Vegas 89, Gibson explained that he'd mapped out his comeback plan, only for things to go awry and lead to his retirement from the sport.
