IN THE CORNER: UFC's Dominick Cruz returns home to resume title quest
The San Diego area’s status as a hotbed for combat sports received a boost this week with news that UFC Fight Night will hold an eight-bout main card on Aug. 13 at Pechanga Arena.
Cruz is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Pedro Munhoz at UFC 259 last December and says he is feeling as good physically as he has in “years” after being hampered by a string of injuries. For the 37-year old Cruz, a strong performance in victory would remind everyone that he remains a major force and potentially set him up for another title shot.
“It all really lined up perfectly,” Cruz said. “I was looking for a summer fight against a higher ranked opponent and to have it here just made it even better. It’s going to be a show.”
