UFC's Dominick Cruz 'Praying' for Rematch with Cody Garbrandt

Andrew Karlov June 4, 2017, 7:52 a.m.

“As I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord for a rematch with Cody Garbrandt!” that's what Dominick Cruz says he's hoping for -- telling he's ready for his shot at redemption after they clashed in one of the best UFC fights of 2016.

The original fight was insane -- a 5-round war -- and Cody emerged victorious, becoming the UFC bantamweight champ. He was supposed to defend his title against T.J. Dillashaw -- but pulled out due to a back injury. Cruz says he feels Garbrandt's pain -- but says he wants him healthy ASAP so they can continue the saga.
