Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.

I don't think Lewis has the striking discipline to handle Hunt. He could very well be just another walk off KO.

Lewis's takedowns aren't great but he might have the most devastating ground and pound in the sport currently. If he ends up on top of anyone, the fight is over. Hunt can definitely knock him out if it stays standing.

Then again, Stipe is right up there in terms of brutal GnP and it took him five rounds (really three) to finish Hunt.

In retrospect I can't believe Hunt lasted til round 5 against Stipe, because nobody else has made it out of the first since then.

Hunt's takedown defense is much better than it used to be and I can't see Lewis relying on a wrestling heavy gameplan anyways. Black Beast about to be up in that ho(spital).

I must've blocked that fight out of my memory because for some reason I thought it got stopped by round 2 or 3.

Stipe was also really noncommittal with his gnp in that fight. He favored staying busy and landing numerous, small punches while maintaining control. I don't think Lewis will be as conservative.

I think of Hunt weathering Stipe for five rounds was less about survival and more about that referee wanting to peel years off Hunt's life.

It's like in It Follows, Dom tricked Cody into taking his loads and now Cody is being stalked by an inexorable force that will destroy his bones and joints.

Agreed, and I can't really see why he's not keen. Unless he's after a soft touch for his record breaking win. Tj said he'd cut to flyweight right? And his assuncao win is more legit than anyone's flyweight win recently, including mm last half dozen defences

Ahh fuuck, I assumed that if MM was turning it down it would be because he was going up. If TJ's willing to cut 10 extra pounds on two months notice let's get that poo poo happening.

why would they offer him less than his standard fee for defending his belt at 125 against a legitimate contender?
