CODY DURDEN

Cody Durden is an American flyweight competitor who began his mixed martial arts journey in 2014 after transitioning from a wrestling background. Fighting out of American Top Team, the southpaw athlete captured the National Fighting Championship Bantamweight Championship prior to entering the UFC. Known for his complete skillset, he blends wrestling credentials with striking power inside the cage.

Entering UFC 329, the American fighter holds a professional record of 14 wins, 9 losses, and 1 draw. His five most recent appearances began with four successive defeats, dropping a decision to Joshua Van, getting knocked out by Jose Ochoa, submitting to Allan Nascimento's anaconda choke, and dropping another decision to Nyamjargal Tumendemberel. However, Durden rebounded in his last outing by securing a unanimous decision victory against Jafel Filho.
