@DominickCruz footwork is a huge problem for @ckmma135 at the moment! Will he have a answer in the next round? To be continued…. #UFC259

1 round a piece I’d say going in to the third.

Wow I thought that was obvious 29-28 for Cruz, I dont really see how the judges came up with the other cards.

Great performance by @DominickCruz. His movement reminds me a lot of the legend #williepep #UFC259

Great fight with a crazy pace. I’d say kenney took rd 3 so it’s 2-1 Cruz. But if you scored rd 2 for kenney then 2-1 kenney…#UFC259

That was a fun fight #UFC259
