We could be seeing UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt fight sooner than we thought.
Earlier this week, Garbrandt got into a heated Twitter exchange with a bodybuilder named Matthew Kline Kader. It all started after Garbrandt replied to one of Dillashaw’s tweets about fighting UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson.
Dillashaw: Would you rather see @MightyMouseUFC headline Seattle and fight Me or @tazmexufc ?

Garbrandt: Wait to fight me?? It’s out of my control with my injury, sorry you are desperate for the money to finish your house, I’ll be 💯 soon!

Kader chimed in at this point backing up Dillashaw.
Kader: How you gonna run your little mouth off when you’re the bitch backing out of the fight? Just be quiet little man and go heal your back up.

Kader: What a shameful little pus talking shit on twitter. I’d smash your midget ass in person. Youd pull out of a street fight with a back injury
