MMA fighter Cody Garbrandt grew up throwing punches. He comes from a legacy of fighters on both sides of his family. Long before he ever set foot in the Octagon, he was sitting outside the ring to watch his uncle, an Olympic alternate in boxing, and battling with his most formidable competitor, his older brother Zach.

Respect to Cody for sharing this story from an extremely vulnerable stage in his life. I’m glad he was able to overcome everything and get to the place he’s at today, Very inspirational.
Thanks for checking out our films Jordan
I have a lot more respect for him now
love cody, God is good
Cody you’re the man, you never know what someone’s going through. 💯💯
Lot of respect for Cody to share this. Even if you're not religious, this takes courage to out this out there. Especially after back to back KO losses
Everyone has "their" story. This showed me, that Cody is more than a blood thirsty brawler.
Straw Man everyone has their story it is beautiful
maybe he shouldn't act like a " blood thirsty brawler " would things make easy
That testimony can shock and change someone's life. You'd be surprised at what many have been through.
hk smh, people like you are the reason people dislike Christians.
@@gee_ruiz I think he's criticizing his fighting style instead of him as a person. In the octagon he makes really dumb mistakes and gets emotional and swings like a mad brawler instead of staying within his technical boundaries
Awesome testimony man, It takes more courage to share something like this than it does to compete, keep opening up and showing people who you really are! I got dragged to church after I had to retire from Motocross a lot earlier than I had ever planned, and I had reached the lowest point of my life not knowing where to turn or what to do. But it was the greatest thing that's ever happened to me, and like you said it's been amazing to look back and see that He was always there, even when I would chalk it up to crazy coincidences and luck. Keep opening up and being you brother, these sports have a crazy way of changing you big time but like I tell our riders, keep your eyes focused on the Lord and you'll never lose yourself on the journey. It's so easy to do what you think everyone else wants you to do and become what you think they want to see. Just tell the truth, share that light, and let the Lord use you to inspire others along the way. You're the man Cody, I wish you the best in your future!
This is awesome, thanks for sharing. God Bless all.
No Cody. YOU are One. One with the Lord. The number One fighter. Best in the world. You'll come back stronger than ever.
Jason Lee Schmidt lost twice to the same guy lol.
and? so did Randy couture. so did rampage. and so did Jose aldo. all amazing fighters still
Never said he wasn't a great fighter. Why you so upset? The statement stated he was the best in the world to which I disagree. In my opinion getting dusted by the same dude twice in a row pretty much proves you are in fact not the best fighter in the world. 2nd best in his division is pretty good. Chill out..
Not mad fam. A fight is a fight. I've lost to the same person 100+ times.(mostly grappling) but our last few fights I dusted him. a fight is a fight. anyone can win on any day. rampage lost two wanderlei twice and the third fight he ko'D him. Cody will best tj
Fair enough, but right now Cody is not the best, TJ is much more controlled and skilled than TJ. To your point though given time Cody may evolve his game and one up him.
Great video, thank you for sharing, Cody. I sent this to my brother. God bless you and yours.
Go, Cody!! I was a fan prior to this video, but now I have a whole different level of respect for him. God bless you!!!!
My boy Cody is making big moves! #TeamNoLove!
Amazing. God bless him.
I've always been a fan of cody, and this made me respect him even more. He will be champ again at some point in his career, no doubt! 🏆
I have so much respect for you!! May Jesus bless you!! Don't let the ego get in the way!!
You're an inspiration, thank you Cody x
Man that was awesome. Real heart hope many get to see this and feel the real ness of a true heart. True champions win lose or draw . Cody your amazing bro .
God Bless you brother.
I knew I was a fan for a reason .
Right on Cody... that's a real man... it's a marathon journey... with rounds... hang tough
I respect this guy more than most.
Awesome story
Wow. Mad props. I was a moderate fan. Now, I’m a hardcore fan for life! This one and the next.
I just became a bigger cody fan after this than I was before
Tjs prob eating popcorn watching this
Aw shit nearly shedded a tear. Sucks to feel like that. Many people here in nz hang themselves alot very sad.
Awesome! The biggest and toughest fight of all is spiritually! (Ephesians 6:12) Thanks Cody for sharing your testimony! (Revelation 12:11) Always been a big fan 👊🏼

This guy is far from Christ based on his actions!
Tyler Hergenrader I’m sure he has some things to work out but it’s a battle my friend! He’s even said he’s improving on His relationship with God! I know everyday we must strive for righteousness but there will be opposition! God sees the heart! (1 Samuel 16:7)
Lj Garcia
Your right it is a battle but when one has truly repented and put on Christ, he is a new creation according to the Word. The old has passed away! I follow the UFC quite a bit and this guys actions are far from being transformed! The reason why there are so many athiest today is because so called “christians” speak one thing with there words than live a life that contradicts!
Luke 6:45
45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Watch all his press conferences to all his fights!! Far from Christ in his actions my friend! We can’t abuse Christ grace and as believers we should use righteous judgement to be able to call out those who claim but don’t follow! Just as well as I claim Christ but if I contradicted Him I should be called out as well! 👍
I do pray and hope he is truly transformed!
Tyler Hergenrader I’ve been following UFC since I was born haha oh I’ve seen his press conferences leading up to fights and I understand what you’re saying! Our souls are so valuable even Satan wants it. I will say there was something different about his most recent fight! Nobody deserves an “all access” grace pass! (Romans 6:1-2) One thing I do know is not only does hypocrisy turn people away from Jesus but so do people who pick people apart and don’t edify and encourage! Being in the spotlight everybody sees and I bet it’s hard but what would our lives look like if God could project what’s truly in our hearts? I understand there is a time for correction (Hebrews 12:6) but you and I knowing truth should be an example and encouragement to Cody and lift him up in prayer instead of just exposing him and everything he does wrong! I truly hope he means business with God too! Pray for Him because he also needs it just like you and I! God bless.
Lj Garcia
I’m not picking him apart I’m calling him out! Being in the spot light is no excuse! If Christ is in you, He will flow out of you! Your right Christ calls us to love!! Sometimes loving is calling people out when need to. All of Mathew 23 “woe to you, hypocrites”!! Jesus calling Peter satan!! Some where along time people lost the fear of the Lord!! Clock is ticking, In Christ return he is not gonna be a happy camper!!
Cody is a master warrior and a champion of Christ!
I hope we can see more of this Cody in the future. He needs to stay truer to who he is. There's more to him than just a fighter. The strongest trait a fighter can have is humility, it fights complacency (I can always be better), allows a fighter to adapt to changing circumstances (emotional investment in strategy vs. effectiveness of said strategy), and keeps the impact of loses to a minimum (Nothing to lose, all to gain). Cody showed plenty of humility in this video. Once Cody realizes this is his greatest asset, the achievements will come. So to Cody: Remember who you are, you don't need to be anybody except yourself. God gave you gifts, use them!
There is only one fight that will make you a champion.....Cody has won that fight. God bless you son!
Good on you Cody just keep it humble
I recently lost a friend to suicide, He surrendered and it makes me angry, because he had everything going for him, or so I thought. Always be nice to people everyone is fighting some sort of battle.
Amen god bless bro
Does anybody know what song/music starts at 6:20 and lasts 'till the end of the video?
Holy cow. I was cheering for the wrong dude. Great testimony.
Eres un valiente Cody . Gracias por compartir esto ❤
Why would someone give this a thumbs down?
Rick Johnson Because some people are ignorant.
Perhaps because he needs to be an ambassador of Christ even in his career. I’ve been watching MMA for a very long time and was not aware that Cody claimed to be a Christian. Praying that God can renew His mind through this moment of tribulation ( his last two loses) So that when he win his championship back he can truly put Christ in His rightful place and represent God not only with just words but also actions. (Matthew 15:8)
@@danmoreno4872 he was humble and humbled in this last fight, i did see a difference in his reaction to Cody this time.
+Daniel Moreno ¨Praying that God can renew His mind through this moment of tribulation ( his last two loses) So that when he win his championship back he can truly put Christ in His rightful place and represent God not only with just words but also actions. (Matthew 15:8)¨
What does it even matter if he wins or loses in relation to his connection to god? Why even put winning a championship as a requirement for him putting christ in his rightfull place? He can put Christ in His rightful place without even ever winning again and also if he has some accident now and cant even walk anymore. Why even consider his last 2 losses as some moment of tribulation? There are 2 guys who fight, if the one wins , the other loses. He would do his soul better to not see it as some tribulation or some low point in life.. He described his losses in wrestling as a contributing factor to his depression, but it would do his spirit well to not get so depressed for a loss.
there is no need to involve god in the outcome of a sportsevent about 2 men fighting. People should stop connecting these sports events to god, trials, tribulations, etc. Winning losing, competing in sports should be a morally neutral thing. People who win claim god is on their side. Like the great footballlegend Johan Cruyff said: In Spain all 22 players make the sign of the cross before they enter the pitch. If it works all matches must therefore end in a draw.
Maybe for glorifying domestic violence and then using Christ as an excuse for redemption as if he missed the part about cain and abel.
@Cody Garbrandt
No matter what your purpose are your job is ... Always Glorify God n Jesus always be led Through The Holy Spirit.✝️🔥✝️
Thank you for Sharing Your Testimony Cody..God Bless You ✝️🔥 👣
God's Blessings to You n Your Family Loved Ones ✝️👣✝️
❤❤❤❤❤
Father please draw Cody and his brother Zach close to Jesus. Fill them with Your Spirit. Empower them daily to fight the good fight of faith in You (trust/obey/love You)! Thank You Jesus.
JESUS Way Truth Life God Bless Cody.
The One True Living God (Father Jesus Holy Spirit) bless Cody and Zach and all their loved ones. And you too John.
Amen
JESUS Way Truth Life Thank You, God Bless You and Your Family.
Hopefully his brother is there for him now after losing to TJ again.
digfidge Same here, He needs the support.
Cody, After watching several of your videos, I knew there was something that has drawn me too you. I'm so sorry you went through that and glad your Brother was there to be with you. Five years ago I tried to commit suicide by an intentional drug overdose. The Lord must have had plans for me because I survived. Your Strength and Heart keeps me going. Stay strong Bro. Looking forward to seeing you back soon. Love ya Bro.
im an even bigger fan of cody now
From Uhrichsville? Shit I didn’t know that.
Wow, never would have known cody was a Christian. I think he should be more open about it. If christ changed his life in this way, spread it with the world like he just did with this video. God is good!
💖💖
Alot of demons this guy... Its amazing to see somebody not be able to work their way through them, very insightful.
Not religious never will be but a beautifull inspirational story
Cody pls believe and let God to be your light
Zach and Cody
Very glad to learn Cody's given his life to Jesus and decided to follow Him. Happy for him to know Jesus's love, forgiveness, healing, restoration and new life. This offer stands for everyone, he took it. God bless you bro !
Didn't see this coming.
The serpent deceived Cody, twice
"deceived"... I see what you did
TJ knocked out Cody, twice.
Samuel Morse 😂😂😂😂😂
@@kalikalla43 TJ has long been known to be a snake. Deceived is a reference to the serpent in the Garden of Eden. Deception and serpentine behavior is a part of fighting.
5:10 😢
the feeling of knowing that you are seeing the last thing you will ever see is surreal. turns out it was not the last thing that i would see. still seeing things coming up on three years longer and counting. much love to everyone out there.
Explains Alot about Garbrandts personality.
That's awesome that you said that about the pump house cody that's what the twin city's was known for if u wanted to fight u fought at the pump house that's where all the great fights took place it's good to see u open up and be the man god intended for u tobe iam very proud to say I know u cody no love you are a true hero
At least he is finally admitting it
I will never forget this Cody. I see you in me and my friends that I grew up with so much. I hate to see such a great talent athlete to be seduced with arrogance because of fortune and fame. Jesus would be crying from Heaven to see those who died for fall for the devil trick. Blessings Cody
has anyone realized how short his arms are? trex arms like 66’ reach at 5’8 when dillashaw is 5’6 with 69’ reach
Dillashaw is 5'8"
for fuck sakes... now i like cody.
Keep fighting brother in the Lord
I thought this was a parody on his second loss to TJ......
Trevor Seines Hahahaha omg so did i!! He’ll always be SECOND to TJ 👀
He beat Cruz tho
Same
which is why he'd be 2nd genius
Jr Robles Well TJ is a beast so no shame in that. Cody is only going to get better from those fights.
I hope he will take his faith seriously enough to yield to the Holy Spirit especially when the cameras are rolling. I was so surprised to learn that he professes Christ as Lord! Remember Christians, we are saved by God's grace, but the mark of the believer is righteousness among other things "love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, long suffering, etc..
Very surprising with the name No Love Cody. I just hope he gets real serious about his relationship with the Lord
It makes sense why he was so offended by TJ leaving now...
Exactly 😂😂
TJ Dillashaw may be "first".
But those who are first...are second.
And those who are second...
...are first.
Awesome testimony.
Hard to believe that such a dynamic mma fighter lost twice to TJ, in fact via tko.
TJ was on EPO
Didn’t know Cody was a Christian. Hope he can speak with boldness and follow Christ
Praise the Lord! Jesus loves you..
Yeah second place
TJ Dillashaw, I Am First
Saudi Turbo Yeah nice one, just wait til your precious TJ gets beat and all you fake fans jump ship.
That Chapter Is Closed, Job done twice in a row + KO`s in 1st round..... "That Chapter is CLOSED...."
Dom Cruz will maul TJ again
@abc absolutely agree!!
@@JordonA98 that's the same thing I was thinking they did it to themselves with the title
Appropriate title for him
Cody needs to cut the trash talk and be the fighter this film shows.....
Do one with Steph Curry 🙂
Steven curry puts Race before faith 👎
Is this a video of him accepting that he will always be second in the 135lbs division?
Tj dillashaw “ I am first “
Steve Dubb wrong
I mean, I guess he does keep coming in second. Haha! 2 KO's in a row! 😂🤣
Biggitybaked yeah because you won a world championship right??? Tell us about your pro training I doubt you have any at all.
@@aduarte8057 with a comment like that it's clear you dont even train, you try hard. What are you even doing here?! Not like you would understand any of this stuff, junior.
sps i think
Man after loss he just want to take sympathy that's it
as an eastern orthodox Christian I just found this odd and maybe mis- timed for promoting spirituality???
That's ironic cause he came 2nd in his last bout with Dillashaw as well... Coincidence ? 🤔
Dan Miller and that’s ok
Why's everyone hate Cody? TJ may be the better fighter but he's a shit disloyal human being, there's more to the feud between these two than Dillishaw leaving Team Alpha Male that was only the straw that broke the camels back.
Yes Cody! Pull the Jesus card, it wins every time.
This dude talk a lot for getting wrecked last month 😃
Gay
Your right Cody you are second...
My names Cody Garbrant I'm second and Dillashaw is first..lmao!
Your surname Michael should be stupid, not Love.
Michael Love bigger picture men see the bigger picture.
Unlike the fake TJ fans we didn't jump ship when Cody lost twice. If and when TJ looses that belt I guarantee y'all jump ship. TJ is getting older and won't be able to make 135lbs forever
love cody, God is good
