Cody Ray Allen Garbrandt was born on July 7, 1991, in Uhrichsville, Ohio. Raised primarily by his mother, he began dabbling in boxing at the age of four with his uncle, an Olympic alternate. His early athletic career also included wrestling and football at Claymont High School, where he achieved a state championship in wrestling as a freshman in 2007 and was a runner-up in 2008. He also received All-State honors as a linebacker in football during his junior year. After high school wrestling, Garbrandt focused on boxing, compiling a 32-0 amateur record over six years. Despite receiving interest from NCAA Division I wrestling programs, he attended Newberry College, a Division II school, before deciding to commit fully to his mixed martial arts aspirations. He stated, “I guess my heart wasn’t into (wrestling) anymore. I was doing boxing, and that’s what I wanted to do,”
Garbrandt transitioned to professional mixed martial arts in 2012 after an amateur career of 6-2. To advance his career, he moved to Sacramento, California, in 2014 to train at Team Alpha Male. He signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in late 2014, making his promotional debut on January 3, 2015, at UFC 182, where he secured a TKO victory in the third round against Marcus Brimage. His career progression saw him quickly rise through the bantamweight division, accumulating an undefeated record that led to a championship fight. On December 30, 2016, at UFC 207, Garbrandt faced Dominick Cruz for the UFC Bantamweight Championship, winning by unanimous decision and capturing his first major title. This achievement marked the pinnacle of his early UFC career, showcasing his striking skills and strategic fight approach against a highly regarded opponent.
