Video: Cody Garbrandt talks Cruz fight at UFC 207 Media day
Undefeated UFC bantamweight Cody Garbrandt took questions from the press on his upcoming fight with UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz, this Saturday on UFC 207.
No. 2 pound-for-pound fighter in the world, Cruz (22-1, fighting out of San Diego, Calif.) knows a thing or two about crushing the dreams of Team Alpha Male standouts and he has developed one of the most intense rivalries in MMA with the members of Urijah Faber’s powerhouse gym. Next in his sights is No. 6 Garbrandt (10-0, fighting out of Sacramento, Calif.), perhaps the most talented and powerful of Cruz’s challengers yet. Cruz will need to rely on his timing, accuracy and unparalleled footwork to counter Garbrandt’s power and speed if he hopes to dispose of another of Sacramento’s finest. Meanwhile, Garbrandt looks to remain undefeated and prove the time is now for him to take over as the 135-pound king.
