Cruz: Faber calling out Dillashaw of PEDs is 'a scumbag move'

[Wild]

Dominick Cruz doesn't care what Urijah Faber has to say about him, but he can't understand why Faber would accuse an ex-teammate of PED use.

Dominick Cruz is clearly never going to be a Urijah Faber fan. It's pretty obvious that he has little love for T.J. Dillashaw as well. But while he's fine with Faber accusing him of performance enhancing drug use, he's puzzled as to why he'd throw the same accusations at a former teammate and friend. Cruz explained himself on a recent edition of The MMA Hour:

"This is the thing, you can say whatever you need to say about me. I understand, all is fair in love and war. Like, I get that he is going to come and attack me. I get that he wants to attack my character. He's been doing this to me since 2007. This is the Faber…

He's right- it was a scumbag move. I like Faber, but the whole stink that was made when TJ left coupled with the PED accusations really left a bad taste in my mouth. I hope Cruz beats him, signs to fight DJ, and TJ and Faber have a go at it.

To be fair, didn't Faber keep it pretty silent for close to a year until Dillishaw and peanut banger opened up?

It is a bad move. Dominic speaks the truth here and the more I hear him, I'm liking him. Never paid much attention before but he is good. I look back to him messing with TJ saying "how are you going to beat me, tell me how you plan on beating me, what are you going to do?"....or something like that.....but it was funny and he handles himself like a calm, measured individual

The more Cruz the better imo. He can talk smack and you don't even realize you're on the receiving end of it! Seems like a good friend as well, wouldn't throw anyone's name in the mud imo. Correct me if he's ever said anything personally demeaning to another fighter

Faber should've let the whole thing go from the beginning. This is one reason.
