Former undisputed bantamweight champion, Cody Garbrandt has two in two straight victories for the first time since his 2016 championship coronation, face-plantting opponent, Brian Kelleher with a brutal opening round KO on the preliminary card of UFC 296 tonight in Las Vegas.
Garbrandt, a former undisputed bantamweight titleholder, most recently featured at UFC 285 back in March, snapping is disappointing losing skid with a one-sided unanimous decision win over Trevin Jones — showing off his often overlooked wrestling in the process.
And tonight against the returning, Kelleher, Ohio veteran, Garbrandt showed off his usual, lightning-quick blitzing style, wobbling the former on the feet midway through the opening round.
