Cody Garbrandt said he had back issues for the 1st fight but took the fight anyway to pay his bills. I would guess his back is fully rehabbed/recovered now? We can see if makes a difference in the rematch.

People probably won't remember Ricky Simon's name. He's the guy who held a choke until round 3 ended. When he let go of the choke, his opponent was unconscious on the mat, then woke up. The referee called it a round 3 technical knockout. There was controversy over that.

Bethe Corriea also likely wouldn't be remembered if she hadn't said something about Ronda Rousey's father committing suicide then been KO'ed by Ronda.

TJ already shut that big mouth of Cody in their first fight. Problem though with Cody is he keeps on trash talking even after the fight. lol. But its good though, at least his making noise and putting a lot of drama that might be enough to put people to watch about this rematch. @bbc.reporter, probably Dana has this story board regarding this two, its going to be a good one, because there's supposed to be a "bad-blood", ever since TJ left Team Alpha Male. hehehe

I reckon Dana's storyboard for bantamweight will be if Cody wins, then him versus T.J. will become a trilogy and the loser of the 3rd fight will fight Dominick Cruz. If T.J. wins then his next fight will be versus Mighty Mouse and then the loser Cody will fight Dominick Cruz.

Also, Dana's main storyboard is for Dominick Cruz to return as a champion and let him move up to featherweight for a superfight versus Max Holloway. The UFC needs the money hehehe.
