Dominick Curz is going to be on the preliminary fight card at UFC 259, and despite what anybody says it is not a demotion in Cruz’s eyes, and this is exactly what Urijah Faber said back in 2014.

When Faber was assigned to fight at the prelims at UFC 175, he didn’t consider it to be a demotion in any way, he believed the prelim card would have more eyes than the main card itself.

And for once Dominick seems to agree with him, in an interview with ESPN he said, “That’s probably the most seen position on the entire fight card. I’ll have the most eyes on me. Like I said, I’ve had a pretty decent layoff, so let’s get me in front of a lot of eyes is what I’m thinking.”

“At the same time, being on the prelims, that’s an ego thing. I’m not really attached to my ego at this point. I know what I am. I know the things that I’ve accomplished. It doesn’t affect me to be seen more, and I will. I’ll be seen more.”

“I’m excited to be in that position,” Cruz is confident that his fight would attract a lot of attention

Dominick Cruz believes his position in the fight card is very crucial and it’s the one that most people like to see.

He added, “More people tune into that then they will the main card. I’m right before the main card so everybody is watching that one because it’s the end of the prelims.”

“It’s kind of like the lead-off hitter of a baseball team. That’s usually the fight that people wanna see almost every time they put these fights together. I’m excited to be in that position.”

Cruz, 35, is looking to snap a two-fight losing streak.
