Do you see anyone beating Cruz at Bantamweight?

[LLD2008]

Or will father time/injuries be the one to beat him in the future, because his fighting style relies on speed?

 

[Danespina]

I'd favor Dillashaw in a rematch.

 

[Drake]

Nope. Domin8r will rule for as long as he sees fit. Though he has some young challengers ahead of him that make for some good fights, but inexperience will be their downfall.

Cruz bless

 

[LouisBolanos]

Yup, injury. Beat him for 3 years straight.

 

[LiLoMMA]

If Frankie knew what was good for him, he would drop down and take this belt first, then give it up for "superfights" at the weight he is already fighting.

 

[Themonsoon]

Nope

And Im willing to bet that Cruz can beat most feather weights aswell.

 

[Rorschach985]

I don't see anyone taking the belt from Cruz at BW, provided he can stay healthy and injury free. He's too fast for anyone bigger than he is, too strong for anyone from the smaller weight classes and a perfect combo of speed, strength and technical ability for any natural BW

 

[ExitLUPin]

Frankie if he drops, TJ could def beat him in a hematch.

I think the BW that matches up best with him isnt even in UFC. Dude has best leg kicks in division, could stifle Doms angles and movement, has great footwork elite striking and wont be wrestlefucked

 

[Nightmaree]

Cruz will become his own victim with this style, someone will steal a close decision against him and he loses the belt

 

[BokaBokte]

I see everyone beating him, but I just have a powerful imagination.

 

[manapua]

He will have the Anderson silva outcome. Minus silva/weidman 2. He'll beat everyone in till the end of his career where his body just won't have the ability to keep up with the game.

 

[Venom]

What about Barao you bums....and perhaps Dillashaw in a rematch.
Edgar if he drops to 135.
Demetrius Johnson also has a serious chance, as does Dodson.

 

[jumasterflex]

Tj mighty mouse and I would be on the war wagon for Thomas Almeida if he got a title shot

 

[JohnyBrabo]

Possibly, but I have a hard time seeing it. The guy's comeback has become the stuff of legend. He also has an incredible brain for fighting, it's like that movie a beautiful mind. He'll be tough to beat on his craft, guile, and intelligence alone.

Frankie doesn't like to cut weight, and he's actually more muscular now than when he fought at LW lol. Hard to argue with the results the guy might be a 2 division champ soon. But still I always thought he could be the one to win 3 belts. Also I always wanted Edgar vs Cruz, way more than Edgar vs Faber.

Lol at Moraes. He is a very very good fighter but I really don't believe he would have anything for Dom.

Barao is moving to FW.... He got tired of getting obliterated by tj.

I believe he said he was only fighting that one fight with Stephens then moving back down again.

 

[ilfirin]

I thought Dillashaw won the first time around, so I'd certainly favour him in a rematch.

 

[ilfirin]

And yeah, certainly Almeida in the future.

Really? Maybe it's because he thought aldo was moving up to lw, but I can't see his time at bw lasting very long with how much weight he cuts and the latest results he's had.

 

[DatSamboKid]

Cruz is looking very good. Michael Mcdonald in a couple years.
