Cruz & Faber Don’t like each other, Plan on Settling their Differences at UFC 199

Cruz & Faber Don’t like each other, Plan on Settling their Differences at UFC 199.

The California Kid also had this to say about UFC Champion Dominick Cruz

“That has been a concern. Part of it’s a testament to him working hard, part of it’s a testament to having a weird style, part of it’s a testament to him [competing] in a sport he’s probably not built very well for, but it’s a concern to make sure he makes it. I’ve asked the UFC to take some extra precautions to make sure there are people on hand to cover his nooks and crannies and all that good stuff to make sure he makes it.”
