"I'm not one to dwell on the past too much, but I really don't care for the guy (Dominick Cruz) too much and I'd love to go down there [to bantamweight] and fight him at some point. The whole thing was, basically, we signed these posters for charity, and give them to a lot of people as gifts. The fighters take some and all the fighters sign them. The day of the fight, he was just being basically an immature punk and signing all over my face with his signature. So you know, for me, who's a good sport and not a little punk, it would kind of piss me off. I don't really like the guy very much. I don't know him too well. We've spoken here and there and I'm not like trying to fight him when I see him or anything, but it kind of says a little something about his character." - Urijah Faber

Urijah Faber (25-3) expresses his distaste for bantamweight contender Dominick Cruz after Cruz apparently disrespected the former featherweight champion during a charity poster signing.

Cruz (14-1) recently defeated Faber training partner and close friend Joseph Benavidez at WEC 42, no doubt further fueling Faber's angst toward the Alliance MMA product. Cruz has just one professional MMA defeat -- a first round submission loss to Faber at WEC 26 back in March of 2007. He is heavily rumored to face newly crowned  champion Brian Bowles in what will be Bowles first title defense since defeating the highly regarded former champion, Miguel Torres.
