Cody Garbrandt is no fan of Dominick Cruz, and he’ll have the opportunity to put fist to face in attempt to hash out their differences when the two meet at UFC 207.
Garbrandt (10-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) was in attendance this past June when bantamweight champ Cruz (22-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) battled Urijah Faber (34-10 MMA, 10-6 UFC) at UFC 199.
The fight between Cruz and Faber was the third in their storied rivalry. Garbrandt, a close friend and training partner of Faber, was cageside for the fight and the UFC captured his reactions as the fight went down.
Garbrandt is now hoping to succeed where Faber came up short and take the bantamweight title from around the waist of Cruz when they meet at UFC 207, which takes place Dec. 30 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Cruz vs. Garbrandt co-headlines the pay-per-view main card following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
Check out the video above to see how Garbrandt handled seeing his friend come up short against his rival.
