Dominick Cruz makes an abrupt return at UFC 249 following a four-year absence, so what better time to take a look back at the history of Cruz vs. Team Alpha Male in the latest edition of “BEEF WARS”
The history between Dominick Cruz and Henry Cejudo can be tracked over recent years heading into UFC 249, but the history of Cruz vs. Team Alpha Male (TAM) goes much, much deeper.
All three of Cruz’s last opponents had at one-point or another a tight affiliation to TAM: Cody Garbrandt, T.J. Dillashaw and Urijah Faber. In fact, Cruz’s only two professional losses come to TAM members. Can you guess how many victories “The Dominator” has against the Sacramento collective?
Relive the entire history of Cruz vs. Team Alpha Male in the new SBN MMA video release, BEEF WARS: Dominick Cruz vs. Team Alpha Male.
UFC 249 takes place at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida on Saturday, May 9. The card is headlined by a interim UFC lightweight title fight between Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje, plus Cejudo vs. Cruz for the bantamweight strap. Keep up with Bloody Elbow for live coverage on the UFC’s big return.
