Cruz vs Cody is honestly a pretty trash fight imo.
I'd put money on it going the way of Cruz schooling Cody for 25 minutes, like actually schooling him and Cody landing one meaningless knockdown off a failed Cruz takedown and people giving him one round. Then everyones going to call Cruz out for running, even though he'll have dissected yet another "Decent' fighter.
I'm not sure why people think Cody Garbrandt is elite, but I get at the lighterweights the divisions are a bit thinner so we don't know for sure until they step up. However, in this case there's a legit number one contender that they passed over, a guy who is a fight removed from being a champion who defended who also beat up the number one guy in the division clearly (Same song different day).
Anyway
If TJ fights Lineker who you got?
