<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary and Endorsement</h2>
Cody Garbrandt is a former UFC bantamweight champion. He is well known for his spectacular knockouts, especially his dominating win over Dominick Cruz.

The American fighter had a <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2696276-cody-garbrandt-is-living-the-dream-how-ufcs-new-stud-got-his-superpower" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">troubled</a> childhood. He grew up watching his brother constantly fighting. His father was a drug addict who spent most of his time in prison. Consequently, his parents separated when he was one-year-old. He was then adopted by his mother's now ex-husband.

Cody and his brother got involved in boxing through their uncle. Unfortunately, Cody's mother thought boxing was too dangerous for the latter. Hence, he transitioned to wrestling. Meanwhile, Garbrandt convinced his mother to let him box. He had a successful amateur boxing career with a record of <a href="https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/21780-cody-garbrandt-no-love" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">32-1</a> record. Cody also placed fifth during his senior year in a national tournament. He <a href="https://codygarbrandt.com/whoiscodygarbrandt/#:~:text=While%20in%20high%20school%20during,focus%20to%20boxing%20over%20wrestling." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">received</a> All-American honors for that.

Garbrandt received offers from DI schools, but he opted for a D2 instead. Eventually, he dropped out and began selling weed, worked as a bouncer, and completed coal miner training.

He then committed to MMA and amassed an amateur record of 6-2. Cody made his pro debut on December 29, 2012, a fight in which he knocked out his opponent within one round. As of 2021, he is #3 in the UFC bantamweight <a href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rankings</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"></sup>
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: UFC Career</h2>
After racking up a 5-0 record, Cody made his way into the UFC. He won his first five fights in dominating fashion and earned himself a title shot against one of the greatest bantamweights of all time, Dominick Cruz.

Garbrandt looked untouchable against Cruz. 'No Love' had an answer for every move of Cruz. In fact, he mocked Cruz throughout the fight and knocked him down multiple times. By the end of the fifth round, there was no doubt that Garbrandt was the new champion.

[caption id="attachment_466258" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-466258" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-630705666.jpg" alt="Cody Garbrandt" width="1920" height="1321" /> LAS VEGAS, NV - DECEMBER 30: Cody Garbrandt (center) reacts to his victory over Dominick Cruz in their UFC bantamweight championship bout during the UFC 207 event at T-Mobile Arena on December 30, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Unfortunately, his reign did not last long. Cody Garbrandt's ex-best friend TJ Dillashaw defeated him in the next bout. One year later, Garbrandt tried to reclaim his belt in a rematch but failed.

After losing twice to Dillashaw, Garbrandt fought Pedro Munhoz. Like his previous two fights, Garbrandt's emotions got the better of him. He was drawn into a firefight, which he lost. At this point, he was on a three-fight skid and was desperate to prove himself in the octagon.

After a year off, Cody Garbrandt returned to the cage at UFC 250 to fight Raphael Assunção. Cody showed a completely different version of himself in the fight. He knocked out Assuncao in the second round with a devastating shot. He holds a record of<a href="http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/d8c7c61b176e3994" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> 7-3</a> in his UFC career.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Fighting Style</h2>
Speed is Cody Garbrandt's biggest asset. Apart from that, he has arguably the best boxing in the bantamweight division. His head movement and footwork can be a lot of trouble for his opponents.



Garbrandt's wrestling background helps him fend off takedowns. 'No Love' has one of the best takedown defense. As of now, his takedown defense is at 100%, nobody in the UFC has taken him down yet.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Cody Garbrandt: Achievements</h2>

He has won the Performance of the Night and Fight of the Night bonuses two times each. He holds a proud record of <a href="https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Cody-Garbrandt-50381">12-3-0</a> in his MMA career.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Deiveson Figueiredo 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary and Endorsement</h2>
Deiveson Figueiredo is perhaps one of the most inspiring men in the UFC. The Brazilian had to go through great difficulties to make it to the promotion. Figueiredo previously held multiple jobs. He was a bricklayer, a sushi chef, and a hairstylist before becoming a martial artist.

He was raised in the tiny city of Soure, Para, Brazil. Until he was thirteen, Figueiredo worked as a <a href="http://sportv.globo.com/site/combate/noticia/2017/05/cabelereiro-mototaxista-e-lutador-do-ufc-estrada-de-deiveson-alcantara.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">cowboy</a> with his father. He then moved to Belem and learned capoeira. He did not train in MMA until he was sixteen.

Deiveson Figueiredo started competing on the regional circuit of Brazil. He amassed an <a href="https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Deiveson-Figueiredo-110485" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">11-0</a> undefeated streak before signing with the UFC. As of 2021, he is #9 in the UFC men's pound-for-pound <a href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rankings</a>.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Deiveson Figueiredo: UFC Career</h2>
His first fight with the promotion took place in Brazil itself. Figueiredo defeated Marco Beltrán to win his debut. 'Daico' won his next three matches before losing to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jussier-formiga/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jussier Formiga</a>. He bounced back with a decisive victory over <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexandre-pantoja/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Alexandre Pantoja</a> in his next fight. After that, he defeated Tim Elliott to secure a title shot.

Deiveson Figueiredo fought <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/joseph-benavidez/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Joseph Benavidez</a> for the vacant flyweight championship on February 29, 2020. Figueiredo won the bout, but couldn't claim the title as he had missed weight. Also, there was controversy surrounding an inadvertent headbutt.

Nevertheless, the duo fought again in July 2020. This time, Figueiredo put Benavidez to sleep via a rear-naked choke. He then went on to defeat <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-perez/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Alex Perez</a> and ended with a draw against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/Brandon-Moreno/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Brandon Moreno</a>. He holds a record of <a href="http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/aa72b0f831d0bfe5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">9-1-1</a> in his UFC career.
<div class="mceTemp"></div>
<h2 style="text-align: center">Deiveson Figueiredo: Fighting Style</h2>
Figueiredo does not waste any time once the cage door shuts. He throws caution to the wind and chases the finish. Every strike that he throws is meant to hurt his opponents. He will often eat a couple of strikes to land a few of his own. And he also possesses knockout power in his hands.



Striking is not his only strength. With a <a href="https://www.mmamania.com/2020/11/19/21566809/deiveson-figueiredo-fighter-breakdown-strengths-weaknesses-alex-perez-ufc-255-espn-ppv-mma" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">black belt</a> in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Figueiredo is treacherous on the ground. He can find many ways to submit his opponent.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Deiveson Figueiredo: Achievements</h2>
He holds a stellar record of 20-1-1 in his MMA career. Besides that, he won the Fight of the Night bonus against Alexandre Pantoja and the Performance of the Night bonus against Joseph Benavidez and Brandon Moreno. Not to mention, he is the reigning UFC flyweight champion.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Deiveson Figueiredo: Net Worth and Salary 2021</h2>
Figueiredo has earned over $1,174,500 in his UFC career according to <a href="https://thesportsdaily.com/2020/12/13/deiveson-figueiredo-career-earnings-fox11/">The Sports Daily</a>. He made around a quarter of a million dollars for his second fight with Joseph Benavidez.
