Cruz: I’ve proven I’m the best bantamweight ever
Dominick Cruz: “I’ve completed the pinnacle of my goals at 135 pounds and I’ve proven that I’m the best ever in this weight class right now.”
Dominick Cruz is undefeated in the UFC and now the bantamweight champion. Despite dealing with multiple injuries over the past few years, he was able to return and defeat the dominant champion TJ Dillashaw. He believes that makes him the best bantamweight…EVER:
“As far as who I’m looking at in the future — I’m looking to make money in these fights,” Cruz told FOX Sports following his win over Dillashaw. “I’ve already accomplished the upper echelon of the division, I’ve cleaned out the division once, gave it time to build back up and become extremely competitive and then I came back and won it again.
“I’ve completed the pinnacle of my goals at 135 pounds and I’ve proven that I’m the best ever in this weight class right now. So that’s a huge thing for me.”
