BAD MMA News — Sun, 08 Sep 2024 20:40:53 +0000

LAS VEGAS – From recovering from a night of drinking to getting a wild submission win, it’s safe to say Cody Durden had quite the week. The flyweight veteran filled in with just four days’ notice to fight Matt Schnell at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 242 . Schnell’s original opponent, Alessandro Costa, suffered a shoulder injury, prompting the need of Durden’s services. “I didn’t have much preparation,” Durden said at the UFC Fight Night 242 post-fight press conference. “I had a few drinks on Sunday, probably more than I should. I laid in bed all day on Monday, and I went back to the gym and sparred five rounds on Tuesday.
