It appears like the UFC may have found their co-main event for UFC 207. A co-main event that will definitely make Cody Garbrandt a very happy man.
According to multiple sources like MMA Fighting, the UFC is currently negotiating a fight deal between Dominick Cruz and Garbrandt for the bantamweight title at UFC 207. Garbrandt has been publicly lobbying for a title shot since he defeated Takeya Mizugaki at UFC 202 via TKO in the opening minute of the first round. The American mixed martial artist has a stunning undefeated record and won most of his pro fights by knockout.
Cruz has successfully defended the title against top UFC fighters such as Urijah Faber and Demetrious Johnson. On December 22, 2014, Cruz indicated that he had torn the ACL in his other knee, which sidelined him through 2015. Now, in 2016, Cruz is performing better than ever, defeating T.J. Dillashaw earlier this year for the belt.
The main event for UFC 207 is another championship fight between Amanda Nunes and Ronda Rousey for the women’s bantamweight. UFC 207 will be held on December 30, 2016 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
