Chad attended Hanford High School, where he actively participated in wrestling. His skills notably improved over the years, culminating in a respectable 3rd place finish during his senior year and earning him the Cadet All-American honor. Subsequently, he pursued his education at Cal Poly and achieved an outstanding wrestling record of 64-14. His remarkable senior year performance, with a record of 30-1, secured him a second-place position in the 2008 NCAA championships. Following his college years, he chose to train with the mixed martial arts team, Alpha Male, and joined the Palace Fighting Championship, where he maintained an undefeated record.

In March 2010, Chad joined the World Extreme Cagefighting and marked a strong debut with a victory via unanimous decision. He continued his impressive run in 2010, securing victories against Anthony Morrison, Cub Swanson, and Javier Vazquez. Notably, his victory against Vazquez was achieved utilizing an unorthodox front flip while Vazquez was on the ground. With the merger of World Extreme Cagefighting and Ultimate Fighting Championship, Mendes transitioned to the UFC along with other fighters. His first fight in the UFC was against judo black belt Michihiro Omigawa in February 2011, which he won via unanimous decision. Although originally slated to face UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo, he encountered Rani Yanya due to Aldo’s injuries, claiming another victory.

In January 2012, Mendes competed against Aldo for the championship title but suffered a defeat in the first round, marking his first professional loss. He rebounded in July 2012 with a victory over Cody McKenzie via knockout. Subsequently, he secured wins against Yaotzin Meza and Darren Elkins in 2012 and against Clay Guida and Nik Lentz in 2013. Despite experiencing a loss against Aldo in a rematch, Mendes extended his contract after a victory against Ricardo Lamas. He encountered Conor McGregor in a fight as a replacement for Aldo and faced another defeat. In late 2015, he also suffered a loss against Frankie Edgar and was later subject to an investigation for a potential doping violation.

In his personal life, Mendes faced legal troubles after being charged with battery stemming from a bar fight, although the charges were eventually dropped. He was, however, fined for public disturbance, and he has maintained a private stance in regards to his relationships.
