By Dojo.TV Last week I was once again lurking about down at Alliance MMA in Chula Vista, only on this day, I showed up to find a crew already filming Cruz and Gustafsson in a little pimp session for The Ultimate Insider. (I think… I also saw some Bad Boy branding on the backs of their GoPros, so they could have a hand in it as well). Anyway, Dom had been in and out of the gym since I’d been hanging around, but since he wasn’t one of the guys fighting in December (and he’s still healing), I’ve pretty much…

Article by MMATraining.com UFC bantamweight champ Dominick Cruz is one of the division’s larger fighters, finding success as a featherweight prior to dropping down to 135 pounds.

Article by Rudy-Dexter UFC light heavyweight Joey Beltran is a man known for his ability to take an insane amount of punishment as evidenced in his wars with Matt Mitrione, Pat Barry and most recently James Te-Huna.

Cruz, who prefers to go 100-percent at everything he does, is taking it slow in working his way back to fighting inside the Octagon. “If I tried to put 100-percent effort into my training right now, I’d blow my knee out,” said Cruz, in an interview with the UFC’s website. “Right now, being a professional is about staying calm, staying very patient and letting the process take its course.” Cruz was set to face Urijah Faber earlier this year,…

Cruz (19-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC), the UFC’s bantamweight champion, is on the sidelines for the foreseeable future – though he would like to be back in the first part of 2013. When he returns from his knee surgery rehab, he has a likely date with Renan Barao (28-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC), the interim titleholder. And while he admits one day moving to 145 pounds might be a necessity, he has plenty of business left to…
