Dominick Cruz has slammed Henry Cejudo for trying to "build clout" by chasing a fight against Alexander Volkanovski.
'The Dominator' recently appeared on Ariel Helwani's The MMA Hour. When asked about his opinion on Cejudo calling out Volkanovski, Cruz replied:
"You [Henry Cejudo] are basically a troll, you're no different than some guy sitting... You're a keyboard warrior now. I hear you did amazing things while you were in the sport, I respect that… but you're done. When you get back in the testing pool then I think ESPN and all these people should be talking to these athletes but why are we promoting people... there's nothing that they're gonna pay for. It's not fair."
