Cody Garbrandt sat down with MMA Fighting’s Jos\u00e9 Youngs in Las Vegas to talk about everything except his next fight.<\/p>\n
The former UFC bantamweight champion discussed his kids’ favorite pastimes, his motorcycle collection, preferred music and movies, and go-to foods, according to MMA Fighting. Garbrandt is scheduled to face Adrian Ya\u00f1ez at UFC 329 in July after he stopped Xiao Long in March to end a two-fight skid.<\/p>\n

That March win snapped back-to-back losses to Raoni Barcelos and Deiveson Figueiredo. Garbrandt, who holds a 15-7 record, captured the bantamweight strap in 2016 with a decision win over Dominick Cruz and has notable victories over Raphael Assun\u00e7\u00e3o and Thomas Almeida as well.<\/p>\n
The sitdown offered a rare glimpse of Garbrandt away from fight prep. MMA Fighting’s full interview is available online.<\/p>\n
Garbrandt and Ya\u00f1ez are expected to meet in late July, though the promotion has not yet announced an exact card or venue for UFC 329.<\/p>\n
