Matthew Kline Kader claims he has arrived, Cody Garbrandt states otherwise
Well today is the big day.
No, I am not talking about the highly anticipated UFC lightweight fight between Michael Chiesa and Kevin Lee tonight in Oklahoma City.
And no, I am not talking about the return of former two division champion BJ Penn who will be squaring off with fellow veteran Dennis Siver on the UFC Fight Night 112 main card later this evening.
Of course I am referring the proposed Matthew Kline Kader vs. Cody Garbrandt gym fight.
For those who need a reminder, Matthew Kline Kader is a professional body builder (I think), who challenged current UFC bantamweight champion and knockout artist Cody Garbrandt to a fight inside his own gym.
Kader, also known by his twitter handle “Shallowking”, even went as far as to release the following promo for his apparent June 25 fight with “No Love”.

As ridiculous as this all may sound, Kader tweeted out last night that he had arrived in Sacramento, California.

As for UFC champ Cody Garbrandt, “No Love” is currently sitting at the gym waiting to see if Kader will actually show up.

For those actually interested, Kader has posted a link to a live stream (which will cost you $9.99) so that you can be a live witness to his confrontation with Garbrandt.
