During what was supposed to be a tribute to Urijah Faber, they asked Cruz what his favorite Urijah Faber moment was and his response was something to the effect of 'the time Urijah Faber turned TUF into a circus' (referring to some prank that Urijah pulled on his team). The man is bitter.
I don't think the guy who is 2-1 in the trilogy and actually won the UFC belt(twice at that) is bitter at all.
Cruz actually gave it up to faber for bringing popularity to the lower weight classes in an interview I read
I prefer these real rivalries. None of these "Oh we were just trying to hype the fight and now we are going to hug after it" crap.
Cruz has given faber a few compliments on the pre fight show. Cruz also has a fight in about 2 weeks and traveled to Sacramento to be an analyst for this card. some would say that's a sign of respect. Just because they don't like eachother doesn't mean there isn't plenty of mutual respect especially after 3 fights.
Cruz is super bitter lol. He couldn't even give Faber props in the 199 post fight conference. He'll never get over that loss.
