I thought Cruz was full marks. Landed way more and countered Dillashaw's misses very effectively. Dillashaws face post fight was evidence of the disparity in effective strikes.

Never have been a fan of Cruz's persona or fight style, however I do feel that he won that fight. TJ was gassed after the second round, kept swinging for the fences and hitting nothing.
Yeah I thought Cruz won 3-2 though. I have no idea how you get 49-46, never mind that it was for each guy? That's ridiculous. I thought it was a close fight.
BJ Penn: The former two-division UFC champion, who last year was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame, announced Tuesday on The MMA Hour that he is officially coming out of retirement with famed trainer Greg Jackson in his corner.
"That's who I am, Ariel," Penn told host Ariel Helwani. "That's who I am. That's what I do.
"I want to go get that 145-pound belt. That's definitely a huge motivation for me. I believe with Greg Jackson's help, I can get that done. And I believe that I will be able to walk away as the only man with three titles in three weight divisions."
