Cruz verbally dismembering Garbrandt

At least to me he does. And i actually like cruz, it takes a very strong mind to overcome his injury and return to look like he did. And i admire people like that, but his trash talk just sounds like its coming from an angry person. He may take what his opponents say to heart and that may be working for him since he seems to best them.
I guess you could have a point. He's never really fully satisfied. He believes he's best but is aware that not everyone thinks it there for he continues to make the attempts to prove them wrong.

& continues to do so.
 
Because standing in the pocket and blocking shots with your lips shows high fight iq. Cruz has the belt and will probably retire without developing a drooling problem.
You can dodge punches, evade, and re-engage and destroy your opponent, which he is capable of as he is leagues ahead of most fighters. He chooses not to.
Does not make for exciting fights to watch, though i do make money on his fights despite not watching them live. Similar to FMW Jr.
I'm not asking for a finish every fight, but at least try to finish a guy? Guys like Crus, GSP, shields, fitch have a hard time finishing a small sandwich.

Do Cruz fans just hype up his trash talk because they know he won't do any "dismembering" in the cage?
 
Not much of a fan of Cruz but really looking forward to this fight. Either get ktfo or prove us wrong once again.
 
Cruz didn't seem angry. He appeared to be very composed. Most of what he said is what we see in him as a fighter and how we perceive he would win this fight.

Cody is shaking the tree with his performances and his mouth. Nowadays, is normal.

I still think Cody/TJ should fight in a five rounder. I would love that verbal warfare more than anything at 135.

Considering what he came back from, I really don't think he needs to prove anything. Cruz could never win a fight again and what he did this past year is remarkable and seemed borderline impossible.

For sure. Simply miraculous.
 
Cruz's comeback is nothing sort of spectacular, but I hope Cody drops him just so I can see swarms of butthurt across the forum.
 
Cruz fighting and why he doesn't get hit

Thought this was about Cruz and not McGregor.

Funny though that when that cut to Garbrandt that he did look like he'd been crying. Obviously sweat and camera lighting.
 
Cruz is shook . Cody is also pals with Conor now. Remember that. Cruz is becoming the new Frank Shamrock. Cody is the younger lion and will devour Cruz
Frank shamrock.....he is the goddam prototype. The legend to compare him with the frank is no bad thing.
But cruz is nothing like frank really..
Sure he's had injuries to deal with. But he seems fit and styles wise he really is a mare for Cody.
Cody is a bad dude for sure. But cruz is light years ahead..
He has to much fight iq

Cruz all the way.
 
I hate Cruz but Garbrandt is going to look silly wiffing on punches all night
 
I'm bigger and bolder and rougher and rougher...in other words sucker there is no other...I'm the one and only dominator.

I don't know that it is from lack of trying. You can't force a finish, a lot of the time it has to be created, especially if a guy is not a knockout artist.
