Morning Report: Kenny Florian responds to Dominick Cruz's post-fight jab over plagiarism incident

Things got a little tense in the Octagon Sunday night after Dominick Cruz reclaimed his UFC bantamweight title from T.J. Dillashaw.

Speaking with UFC commentator Joe Rogan, Cruz took a parting shot at his FOX Sports colleague and fellow analyst Kenny Florian. Florian was due to participate in the event's coverage from the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, but had been suspended by FOX after concerns he plagiarized sections of a preview article.

Florian addressed the incident Tuesday alongside fellow UFC commentator Jon Anik, who stated that Cruz was "very regretful" of those comments behind the scenes in Boston.
