Cruz: "I want to fight the best guys in the world"

“I wouldn’t say there’s a preference. I want to fight the number one contender and that will prove it. I want to fight the best guys in the world. If Faber beats Bowles, he’s the best. If Bowles beats Faber, awesome. Either one, I’m fighting for the second time. I think Faber has the advantage in that fight though. I think he can take Bowles down easier than Bowles can do so to him, therefore he dictates where the fight is gonna be. And Faber is good enough on the feet that he won’t get slept in the first round. He can grind the fight out and take Bowles down and beat him up from the top position.”

  3. the dude says:

    he is to unorthadox for anyone at 135 he is too long for other 135 fighters it would be like me fight my shorter little brother(who of course could never touch me because of size and height)im just sayin he as great timing and length that no one could touch him,kenflo would destroy him and aldo…without a question

  4. King Gareth says:

    Cruz is an entertaining fighter, but im tired of watching Faber fight.

  5. doc says:

    Bantamweight has no finishes except submissions. That’s my only complaint.
