Dominick Cruz will be in familiar territory for his upcoming fight against Jimmie Rivera at UFC 219. Just like how he took on his fight against Takeya Mizugaki at UFC 178 three years ago, “The Dominator” will be entering the contest without the UFC bantamweight title in his possession.
The difference, however, is that he will be coming off a loss, which is something he has not experienced for nine straight years. But for Cruz, the only difference is the amount of money he will be taking home, as his approach remains the same.
