The MMA community can exhale -- for now. Dominick Cruz’s knee is just fine.
The newly crowned bantamweight champion appeared to be hobbled during the later stages of the UFC Fight Night Boston headliner against T.J. Dillashaw after his opponent landed a series of hard leg kicks. It wasn’t enough to prevent Cruz from winning a closely-contested split decision, but there was a little bit of concern regarding “The Dominator’s” health after the bout.
“I did not re-injure my knee. My knee’s good. It’s my left foot,” Cruz said at the post-fight press conference.
