His first fight in the cage in nearly a decade saw him triumph over Artie Mullen (0-11) this past February at “NEF-XVI.”
“I’m pumped to be have an opponent like Cody,” said Hansen of the upcoming fight with Anderson. “He is a real tough guy and this should be a great battle.”

Anderson had been winning the bout to that point, turning in a “taistella yötä” performance along with his opponent.
