- Dominick Cruz earned his belt back at Fight Night Boston after a five-round battle with TJ Dillashaw. Cruz last defended his bantamweight title in 2011 before having to give it up due to injury.
- Sport
True fans know that Cruz is the greatest bantamweight of all time
JT7 yup he is, and also my favourite
@The Senate still is Imo unless dillashaw comes back and dominates once again
The Senate cant judge a fighters legacy on a couple losses. Every fighter that’s considered a GOAT has a lost a fight, losses happen.
The Senate I understand that but you can also make an argument that Jones lost to Reyes. Thats not to say he isnt a GOAT but in the eyes of many thats his true loss.
@The Senate cejudo lost the same amount of fights as cruz did before their fight. Cruz was 22-2. Cejudo was 15-2 I believe. Numbers do not matter. Fedor lost to werdum and bader. Anderson silva lost to chris weidman....twice. randy couture lost to Lesnar and others that'll always be overshadowed by him. Gsp lost to Matt Serra that one time. Remember that? According to your logic all these guys that beat one of these legends is potentially the goat of that division.
What an inspiration. Three 3 Acls and multiple injuries and he still didn't quit. Many would've. Came back and took the belt from a dominant champion. Shows you what level Cruz is at. Mentally and fighting wise I don't think anybody's better. Congrats Cruz. You deserve it.
"Dominant champion" lol he fought the same guy twice
+Bruce dillashaw broke his leg again :p
+Daniel San you didn't listen to the vid you commented on? you're as bad as Ariel helwani
+Bruce he sucks..he ran for 5 rounds..fuck cruz !!
His story is better then Conor's. Cruz really deserves it.
This win is even more impressive knowing TJ was probably on EPO before this fight as well
A likely correct assumption
Cody exposed him as a longtime cheater .there is no doubt he was on some shit
@@aje2321 he only popped for the cejudo fight, he was clean for the 2 Cody fights. If you think others don't do the same thing then you're stupid.
@@aje2321 The only thing Cody exposed was his pride and his chin, and Dillashaw smacked both into orbit twice.
@@Nathan93x give me a break you're a real naive guy if you think that was the only time he cheated with epo. Who knows how long he was doing it but I guarantee cejudo was not the first and only time. I think you know that's true
1:00 Dillashaw was so surprised on these moment he started questioning his training like...
"Bruh, I know I took the proper dosage of that shit, why did I still lose?"
Inner voice: "I guess I suck after all"
Dominick became my favorite fighter just knowing what he went through. 3 ACL and when he was in his lowest his gf or wife left him. That's sucks but now u r my inspiration brotha.
Cruz my man, trying to make that "Monster" money.
+Jose Hernandez Some Conor copy-paste there
that was a can of Reebok.
It's funny cause he'd never drink that crap during training cause of the retarded sugar content.
+Jose Hernandez because budwiser doesnt pay me (BROCK LESNAR) LOL
+Jose Hernandez
I swear the monster cans the fighters hold at the end of the fight always looks so damn empty
Honestly I was so fucking hyped when he won, I was screaming yes Diego Sanchez style at my TV.
I was screaming "YEAH YEAH !!! WHAT!! WHAT!!! We won that shit Team Cruz WUT WUT!!!" Like the Diaz boyz
+BlissOneSeven
YES,YES,YES,YES,YES!!!
Bruh i literally did the exact same thing. This is one of those extremely technical fights only hardcore mma fans can appreciate like us
I did the same thing, Cruz is an inspiration.
+BlissOneSeven YES! YES! YES!
0:59 TJ - "I`m gonna start to use some roids"
He probably does it before USADA
Start? Was probably on it since the barao fight lol
I thought he was when he fought Easton too that's waaaaay back
You guys are all wrong.. he’s most definitely been on it since his loss to that smurf Dodson . Just look how flabby he looks in that fight compared to after that when he started fighting in ufc with guys like Barão
@@tierracooper3356 "smurf Dodson" LMAO
LMFAO
For me, this is still the greatest moment in UFC history. I keep coming back to this video to remind me of "Recovery." Conor made history but this Cruz win is just inspirational.
"Kenny Florian quit copying and pasting man." -Kenny Florian
What did that mean? Can you bring me up to speed plz?
Kenny Florian got caught copy and pasting from news articles earlier this year, he's known to plagiarize.
I just realised that his post fight speech rhymed lol.
jaja, love that quote. Kenny was salty afterwards.
Would love to see Cruz with an adamantium skeleton.
too bad the ligaments are the problem.
But if he had an adamantium skeleton all of his injuries would heal right? Is that the fancy Steele or just him?
+Jordan Bowlen Only his bones would heal, not his ligaments
Jordan Bowlen no those are the powers of Wolverine it has nothing to do with the skeleton.
+GodRise exactly he already had the healing factor before the experiment
I got 49-46 Cruz, but I'm not sure how anyone got that result for Dillashaw.
Round 4 and 5 were tj hands down lol. 2 and 3, Dom coz of the takedowns. Round 1 was a Toss up
Not sure? And 49-46 Dillashaw, if you ask me. He sparked Cruz up in the last two rounds and edged the first.
@@MrSals123 punchin the air doesnt make you win a fight. Cruz won 4 of them easily
@@latheredtrillionaire5701 hahah what? I don't think you know how scoring works
Nah man rounds 4 and 5 were without a doubt for TJ, rounds 2 and 3 for Dom, round 1 was the closest but i scored it for Dom
"Kenny Florian quit copying and pasting man" lol best line.
What does he mean by that
Thanks
jose hernandez “Kenny Florian quit copying and pasting” Kenny Florian
Yeah what’s the story behind him saying that?
KFlo was stealing someone else’s striking break down. Literally word for word and passing it as his own analysis.
Such a satisfying moment, and yet, what I love about this scene the most is that while Bruce is announcing the third judges decision you can see how calm he is, like even if he had lost you could he had found peace in his performance! Love this dude!
Anyone here after TJ got worked by Cejudo in 32 secs ? xD
@Kobe Walker biggest sore loser in mma right next to Chris Weidman
And on steroids lmao
No but I am here after tj tested positive for EPO. Steroid junkie!
Nope here after he popped for roids that's why tjs mad how did I a epo head lose
Ratan Prabhu I’m here after he cheated
Joe Rogan: TJ, that was a hell of a fight, what is your perspective on Cruz as a fighter?
TJ: SSSSsssssSSSSsssSSSSS
Joe Rogan: I'm sorry I don't speak snake
That's fucking hilarious how does this not have 500 likes
Maybe because its an unoriginal old joke that was posted on a nearly year old video
I'm not new at all. Nor am I a homosexual, and yes but memes generally die out when they stop being funny,
good one😂😂😂😂😂
good one😂😂😂😂😂
I'm glad Cruz got the win, he deserved it.
+polakoune lol movement is not running bro.
+harcoreej Waited so long for a shit fight...smh :/
+Gabriel Mora you just have to really understand what both guys are doing. I just don't like when people don't appreciate what needs to be appreciated
I understand what each fighter was doing, but overall very few exchanges.
How was it shit? A decent amount of strikes some cool moving, take downs. It was a mail bitter.
Whose hear after finding out dillashaws been cheating?? 😂
By looking at your profile pic it seems like you have been cheating too...

Who the fuck had TJ at 49-46 Cruz wasn't fucking touched it was 4 rounds to 1
mxamiss5
U are out ur mind your gonna tell us Cruz deserved to beat and win the belt from the champ after this performance? Your crazy
The first three rounds TJ barely touched Cruz. You crazy?
COACH DEE your outta your mind. tj was outstruck, outwrestled and flat out outclassed.
Cloud Strife Hey you're the guy who once said "Cruz would beat Cruz" lmao. I remember you.
COACH DEE everybody gets caught dumbass. even floyd you panzi
Dom made the snake look silly in the 1st round. He faded a lot towards the end though.
TJ "Little weasel" Dillashaw
He didn’t fade, TJ just didn’t gas out cause of the EPO
The most inspiring man in the whole mma scene! Lost everything, came back and conquer it all again! I bow down in front of this man.
Why are people liking this comment?

What a comeback, what a story. So inspirational. But, folks, let's not forget that they both fought their heart out and gave it everything they had. Show respect.
Cant believe its already been 7 years...epic UFC moment.
I had just graduated college and was depressed searching for a new job. Seeing Cruz return to take the title def lifted my spirits!!
Such a goat moment for Cruz. Hope he catches gold one more time before he retires. One of my favorites
4:30
Rogan: What went through your mind?
Inside Dillashaw's head: *Hisssss*
😂😂😂
😂😂 Dominick went to team alpha fail corner and nodded and they just stared at him. He literally showed them how shitty they are
Alpha fail? Cody just destroyed Cruz on the next bout. I enjoyed when he regained his title, but alpha fail?? Don't be silly
The one on the left even made his right hand ready for the handshake... Fail
@@Ruzzmeister it took alpha male like 12 fights just to do that
@@Ruzzmeister Cruz is 5-2 vs TAM.

Yes! Cruz, followed you since I was a kid and seeing you get you're belt back. True champion, well deserved props to both guys.
Joe "Was there anything surprising about it?" Rogan
Omar "Overused Meme" Nur
I really think this was one of the most underrated fights ever. It only got a fight night event but the way these two guys fought and the long comeback just made for one of the most intriguing fights I’ve ever watched.
This is one of my favorite interviews of all times. I've been calling this for months now. Get onboard with my picks because I follow this shit closely. TJ was a babysitter for the belt while Dominick was injured.
Thanks for posting this video, my recorder stopped after the 3rd round. I wish I could've watched it all the way thru cause it was an incredible fight up until then. Looking forward to the reeeeematch! Congratulations to Dominic Cruz, and I'm sure the rematch will be wicked exciting!!!
I'm so happy for this man , the comeback is real and he had heart and grit ! Great fight !
I say give Cruz a rest and let Faber and Dillashaw battle it out for a title elimentor and winner faces Dominick Cruz. Win Win for UFC.
We're on the same page.
They are mates...
+ST have you been around for the past 4 months?
+Pierce Peel no.
ST TJ left team alpha male and uriah faber to join Duane Ludwig and his team and uriah felt betrayed
People like Cruz inspire me to pursue no matter what injuries come my way.
Respect
yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go Dominic!!! so inspiring if anyone's earned it it's Dominic. Dude's been through hell and to come back like that gotta love it!
What a great comeback story. I still think Cruz is the best bantamweight. I dunno how the hell he got schooled by Garbrandt but that was a beautiful performance by Cody.
Just one of those nights where Cody was in the Matrix zone
Dom probably beats him 9/10 times
This was also before Cody got KO'd by Dillashaw. I felt the two knockouts from TJ really hurt Cody's mentality and he still hasn't recovered since.
Looking back at this entire past year Cruz is still the greatest bantamweight of all time
I’m a big big big big Cruz fan, also who’s here after Cejudo vs Cruz is announced?! #teamcruz #cruzpower 🔥 💪🏻
Hoping to see Cruz kick some ass 😂 he has much more of a chance than people give him
Robert96902 yup
TJ wanted to call out Conor at the end. I wouldn't let him.
"And new?"
"And still!" as far as I'm concerned!
Exactly!
+Natalou yeah, i thought so too.. dillashaw was always pressuring and dominick didnt really land any solid shots
+Leni Hebilt dumbass. Dominick never lost his belt he just got injured and ended up losing it
+Natalou do you mean this as cruz was the one who's "still" because he never really lose that belt, or do you mean you think tj won that fight ?
damn my english is so bad lol
+Leni Hebilt "And Still" as in, Cruz never lost the belt in the first place
I can't see
lmao 😂😂
+MattMitrione's Eye LMAO His other eye clearly indicates he has seen his face on the big screen
+MattMitrione's Eye W
+MattMitrione's Eye hahahhaha....made my day
+MattMitrione's Eye buahahaha
Whos here after tj tested positive for EPO😂
YES! So happy Cruz got that win. He really deserved that after the injuries he's gone through and never backed down. Such an inspiration and motivational guy!
I have my first MMA class tonight with Cruz's determination in my head!
It's been 7 years r u still doing mma bro?
I'm so happy now I can't believe it
Tj "I scored the bigger shots" . Look at your face! Da fuq
Magamed Tasouev 😂😂
TJ bruises very easily. He said so in his interview after the Cody fight. Look at it.
@@ZPSBestProfileName
He still clearly took more damaging shots. He's not just bruised, he's swollen as fuck
TJ, I guess it's back to Team Alpha-nevermind.
I wonder if alpha male would take him back?
TJ will be okay once they open up the snakeweight division. 🐍
+Random Videozz He sounds like someone made him leave TeamAlpha
+Dennis Smith Team Alpha Fail as Cruz calls it.
+jumustube lol cruz should have said "just another alpha fail" lol
I've had X3 surgeries on my leg as well, CRUZ you are truly an inspiration in my life, I watched your fight last night, I made sure I left work early, you are the MAN!
I still get goosebumps
"I don't wanna talk about things I came in with, because its stupid. But yeah, I had some problems with my left foot, that I came in with... "
Lmao
T.J can’t believe it because of the extra oxygen in his blood line didn’t work
"this is still my boy!!!" -Duane Ludwig
This was one of the greatest fights I've ever seen. If there are any new MMA fans who want to see the perfect display of martial arts technique, this is the fight to point to.
For me this was the best comeback story you can write off
When the crowd erupts after And the new I will always remember this fight was so happy for Dominic
what a champion hard work pays off guys cruz just showed us all
00:35 lorenzo fertitta already has a Cruz Champion Reebok shirt in his hand lol.
+WylunCustoms they would have had both guys shirts, just a matter of who won the fight.
I think they see the scorecards so I think he knew
+Tony Caulfield lol, i think the fact that TJ lost is the only reason Faber deserves to fight him now. i dont think Faber has earned a title shot, him vs Tj is much more marketable for both guys now tho i think, and Fabre probly knows he'll never beat either of them ever, so it moght as well be for the belt.
+WylunCustoms Corrupted illuminati bs organization.
They already made both. How you think super bowl shirts are worn, right after the game is over. Smart one
Wow, this victory was that much greater. Fought EPO with problems in his left foot. Respect to the dominator.
You're the absolute best Cruz. So much love!
Such a feel good moment
Bantamweight GOAT
Amazing victory and well deserved! When I heard "and NEW" I lost it, can't imagine the happiness Dom had after hearing that.
One thing I just noticed, the past year(2015-now) saw the fall of so many champions that retained their belt for more than 1 fight, from Jose to Cain, Ronda to TJ, and more, incredible.
+FangsOfKomodo If only he didn't insist on being a dick to Dillashaw. I think I would have also been excited about him winning.
nice to see cruz back.. stay healthy champ!!!
what a amazing comeback great job Cruz!!!!
Once an alpha fail always an alpha fail.
a legendary quote indeed.

He did it :') aaaaah!
+Natalou hey
+Natalou I knew he would! But actually seeing him utilize his footwork and slipping and jabbing was BEAUTIFUL. Seeing that unfold before my eyes was just sublime to watch. Dom is an inspiration on so many levels.
***** I was rooting for Cruz and Alvarez. I am a happy happy individual at the moment!
Lildrummerboy714 I didn't have the chance to watch the fight live. I'm about to watch it now and I'm sooo excited you have no idea!!

Hope to see him more!!!, my favorite bantamweight
5 yrs and hes still got it thats probs the best heart ive ever seen
cant imagine how far this guy couldve gone if his knee wasnt bad. top 3 fav fighters
We'll be hearing this again on May 9th. #CruzArmy
this has to get a rematch asap. very, very close fight and very entertaining. I fell in love with this sport more after I witness crazy stand up and grappling skills from both talented ass fighters. just wow.
Wow that gave me chills ....

This is the most humble weve ever seen tj

After this fight TJ realized he needed to start using roids 😂
Funny
TJ was already on Roids for this one according to Cody.
He used epo, not roids

I will never stop supporting The Dominator. #TeamCruz all the way

Who’s here after finding out TJ’s a cheat?
One of the GOATs for sure
That lost to Cody and barely got a split decision win over TJ... yes GOAT level
A replay of what's to come
1,2,3. Cruz!
+Heat Kingz tmm
yes!
Imagine if he does this against Cejudo and becomes a 3 time UFC Bantamweight Champ
I hope Cruz achieves it and shuts up that cringy midget tripod c. We need Cruz to be fighting coz tbh he sucks at commentary (cue ufc 229) 😂😂
@@yavuzkrat3858 Yeah true his commentary does kinda suck 😅😅
@Shaun Richards Bro I said kinda sucks, not he's complete dogshit
in some fights that he commentates yes i agree that he does a very good job of analyzing and commentating on whats happening in the fights but in other fights his commentary is not that good an example is namajunas vs andrade when he said
"No Andrade cant lift her, she cant do it"
And what did jessica Andrade do she picked up Rose and Slammed her dead.
incredible footwork by dominik cruz, allways in complete control...he win and he deserve it.
One of the greats
