After defending his UFC Bantamweight title against Urijah Faber in UFC 132 with a unanimous decision victory, Dominick 'The Dominator" Cruz look to defend his title once again against Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson in a 5 round war. Johnson is on a four Fight winning streak dating from September 2010 when he defeated Nick Pace to a unanimous decision.
The Champ on the other hand has not lost since march of 2007 when he first lost to Urijah Faber for the WEC featherweight title. Since then he has been on a tear, winning 9 straight fights in a row. The list of fighters he has defeated during the 9 fights win streak are some of the best bantamweight fighters in the world. The list includes Joseph Benavidez (Twice), Brian Bowles, Scott Jorgensen, Ian McCall, and Urijah Faber just to name a few.
The Co-Main event will be a heavyweight bout pitting the tallest fighter in the UFC Stefan Struve vs Pat Barry. Barry is one of the smaller heavyweight fighters but this fight is nevertheless exciting. Both are known to be strikers with Barry having a slight advantage in the stand up while Struve has a reach and jiu jitsu advantage. This is a freak show where anything goes.
