In an interview on Thursday night, Dominick Cruz made it clear who he wants to fight next: His old rival Urijah Faber. Cruz first lost to Faber by submission at WEC 26 in 2007, then got his revenge in 2011 at UFC 132 when he defeated Faber by decision.
“For the past four years, the only name I’ve been asked about is Faber,” Cruz told MMAFighting.com, “whether I’m on the FOX desk or shopping at the mall. Let’s get him out of my face and out of the way, so I can continue to clean out the division.
“We owe it to the fans to make this trilogy happen. It’s been almost a decade in the making.”
There’s no word on when or if their rubber match will take place.
