Great for you that you can unanimous decision a guy that's 5 inch shorter than yourself in Demetrious Johnson, how about fighting your own size at featherweight and stop ducking?
 
Why do you think that your opinion is a fact?
 
You should ask him on Twitter. I'm actually quite confident he'll answer you.
 
Dude stfu. He still has many challenges left at 135 unlike DJ.
 
You mean the guy that had 2 possible career ending surgeries?

You no hespect Cruz. Hespect for Cruz, hespect for champion. Put hespekt on his name.
 
He is big for 35' but going up he's much smaller than McGregor and Holloway.
 
Probably because he's the current BW champion...

Cruz bless you, ts.

He's just got back and reclaimed his belt at 135 and never has trouble making weight. Pointless thread.

He's fought at FW & even LW before. He's not afraid to fight there again & has even said he would. He has no reason to go up unless the UFC offers him something which they aren't right now.

Unlike (some fighters we know of) some guys have a brain and stay where they're best at. Any fighter has the option of going down a weight class or up a weight class, but Bantamweight is his butter-zone.

And knowing Cruz, he'll just hurt himself if he tries to change anything about his body.

Why does Stipe duck super heavyweight? Why does Jones duck heavyweight? Why does Bisping duck light heavyweight? Why does Lawler duck middleweight? Why does Dos Anjos duck welterweight? Why does Conor...oh my god Conor is the goat.
 
Because he can make 135? Its the division he can perform the best.

If he's ducking Featherweights than I guess every single champion in UFC is ducking fighters above his weight class? I honestly don't see the difference between the situations.

Going up a weight class or two is fine... Unless your opponent is of a certain calibre. If you're 155-160lbs and you get hit by Ricardo Lamas and in your next fight by Conor McGregor, you will notice the difference.
