Dominick Cruz, who broke his left index finger prior to fighting Joseph Benavidez in August of last year (2010), will reportedly have surgery this week, according to ESPN.com. The UFC bantamweight champion commented on his recovery process:
"It could be six months, but I'm not planning on six months. I'll say that it will take me eight weeks to recover and 12 weeks to punch again."
Will a long awaited rematch against Urijah Faber be awaiting him upon his return?

I like Cruz and I like this division.
To answer your question.
I never used to – but the Benevidez fight was good… Jorgenson too.

i agree. their are great bantamweight bouts and (other weight classes as well)some great heavyweight bouts.
the size does not matter to me. just that both fighters go full throttle and give 100 % in every round. I want action and to be entertained.
On february 5th 2011 at UFC 126 Jon "Bones" Jones will show the world that their was no need for the MMA community to hype this man because this guy is a beast with many skills and i personally will feel Ryan "Darth" Bader's pain after this fight. SB Nation's public enemy #1.

I just asked my girlfriend and she said size doesn't matter. :)
That being said. I got Cruz in the Faber rematch, if that is his next fight.
I don’t see anyone else besides Faber giving Cruz much of a challenge.
of course shes gonna tell you that
but that 11 inch black rubber thing she keeps in her dresser says different

This guy breaks his hands more often than franklin.

If the round is too close, it's 10-10, NOT flip a coin 10-9 or late takedown FTW.

about as much as Arturo Gatti used to.
"Remember that shit I gave you last week nigga? It's nothing nigga, it's nothin', it's nothing nigga, nigga it's nothing. This shit right here, nigga! This shit right here nigga, right here this shit nigga! This shit right here nigga!....This shit called deaf nigga!"
"That don't even sound attractive, you mean Ima hit it and die nigga?"
"Naw nigga, not death nigga, nigga DEAF! You hit this shit twice, you can't hear nothin'"
I say
If Faber destroys Winland then he could get a shot, if its close give him one more fight and let somebody else get a shot. If both win their fights, do TUF possibly.

1st time post
Just wanted to say hello to everybody here at Mania. This is my 1st post, however i’ve been visiting on a daily basis for a couple years now and just decided to join in on banter… good stuff everybody, you’ve kept me entertained for a while now. I must say, you are the most knowledgeable fans i’ve come across. I choose Mania over all other outlets for my MMA news.
Welcome to Mania.
Good to have you commenting.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.

Thanks Geno, I appreciate it
On the topic, I see this fight being close but I think Faber can beat him again, but he will need to take it to the ground, Cruz has improved stand up this time around.

Entertaining? Hell yeah. Knowledgeable? Up to discussion.
I love reading these forums because of the fun, but if I want to read some intellectual stuff, this is usually not the place. It’s just trolling and hating mostly.
