Ali Abdelaziz teases a move to flyweight for Cody Garbrandt
Ali Abdelaziz sent out a tweet about Cody Garbrandt as well, hinting at a move down to the flyweight division for 'No Love'.
Ali Abdelaziz said the same previously when former UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo defended his belt against Alex Perez at UFC 255 in November 2020. He congratulated the champ and said that Cody Garbrandt would be ready for him in March.
Cody Garbrandt was offered the title shot against Deiveson Figueiredo over the 125-lbs. gold after he went through Raphael Assuncao at UFC 250. However, he had to pull out of the fight due to a torn bicep and was replaced by Alex Perez against Deiveson Figueiredo.
Cody Garbrandt told ESPN's Brett Okamoto that Alex Perez was "someone they gave Deiveson Figueiredo to build up our fight more." He predicted that he would knock Figueiredo out in the first or second round in March.
However, things did not quite go Garbrandt's way. Instead, he fought Rob Font at bantamweight in May this year and came up short, dropping a unanimous decision. Deiveson Figueiredo is no longer the flyweight champion either, after getting tapped out by Brandon Moreno at UFC 263 two weeks ago.
Cody Garbrandt is currently ranked no.5 in the bantamweight division. He might have to win a fight in the flyweight division before he gets to challenge for the 125-lbs. title.
