Cody is coming for much more than a win Saturday night.
UFC Apex 100
UFC Apex 100 is this Saturday night with the prelims kicking off at 4PM ET and the main card at 7PM ET. During the prelims, a fun bantamweight matchup between Cody Stamann and Da’Mon Blackshear goes down. Recently, Cody sat down with BodySlam for an exclusive interview and when he was asked about how he thinks this fight will go, he didn’t hold back on revealing his plans.
I think he’s tough, I don’t think he’s just going to go away, you know what I mean? I think I’m going to have a hard time getting to him at first because he’s a rangey dude. I think he probably kicks and hits pretty hard. I think he’s going to force a lot of grappling exchanges. But, I definitely think that my wrestling’s a lot better than his and I think he’s going to have a hard time kind of implementing the kind of game-plan that’s kind of led him to win a couple fights in the UFC. I think he’s going to make a mistake, man, I’ve seen him rush in, I’ve seen him do some silly stuff in the cage. We’re fighting at the Apex, it’s not a big cage. He’s not going to have a lot of room to run around. I’m going to get to him eventually and once I start putting my hands on him, it’s going to be a tough night for him. I don’t know if it’s going to be a 15 minute absolute banger, or you know, I really do think that no can land that shot that’s going to just like, straight up put his lights out. But, we’ll see, we’ll see. But, I mean, I’m pretty confident that I’m going to end his UFC run November 9th.
Cody previously said he felt like he was in a do-or-die situation in that fight, which you can read here.
