MMA:30 caught up with Urijah Faber and Dominick Cruz at the UFC 148 Press Conference at the MGM Grand. Both talk about their respect for each other, their thoughts on their previous fights, and then hash out their differences on camera.

Faber - "I'm cheering you on" Dom - "All I see is your chin flapping" 😂
Lmao they're like two brothers who are the complete opposite of each other. Too funny
ikr lol they funny
Haha so true just like me and my brother lol
Stepbrothers hahaha
carlDJS I swear this is like a sibling rivalry. They pick at one another constantly. They really need to stop and grow up. Although it's entertaining nonetheless.
It reminds me of my little brother and sister arguing all the damn time. I always have to step and tell them both to Stfu.
"You haven't simulated anyone's death yet" holy smokes I lost it there.
+Zane Gonzales LMAO. me too.
+Zane Gonzales : Right " Classic " shit .
@dillajohn LOL whyy u say that?? He had tkos! Is it cuz he's a teddy bear?
Dumb Comment and he is wrong though..
😆😂
I Love “you haven’t simulated anyone’s death yet” But it’s the line just before that. That gets me every time. “Oh gosh you’re gonna go there again” Cruz implying that Faber and himself have had that conversation about simulated death matches multiple times.
7:27 "WRONG." "RIGHT." hahaha
"Yeah...this is a simulated death match...and u haven't simulated anybody's death yet" hahahahahaha. It's true
lool best line in the interview
+aro abdul best line in mma, except, train by day, joe rogan podcast by night, all day.
+Randy Durger oh my goodness. so funny, and the exact feeling i get from cruz' style. hard to beat, but not dangerous at all.
+The Lynx Agreed but same could be said about Uriah.
+Randy Durger Hahahahaahahaah Gawd Damn this is still as fuckin funny as I remembered the first time around altho I sorta remember them go back and forth for much longer than this about the Life or Death situation OR maybe Im mixing it up with the "Your Welcome For Letting You Live" Interview.. Strange the first time around I was on Fabers side NOW Im on Cruz's side - the unlucky fukker has been tru the Mill, Hope he Beats Snakeshaw...
I think this is one of the most entertaining rivalries in UFC history
+Eric Haber Rivalry??? Cruz decimated Urijahs entire team single handedly.
Eric Haber T.J Dillashaw and Cody Garbrant rivalry is bound to be good too
@Darren Reddix Mcgregor Khabib ain't over yet
@BAZINGA153760 I don't think so, there is no background stories on these two, I don't even consider as a rivalry, Jones/DC Cruz/Team Alpham Male and Anderson Silva/Sonnen are the best for me, let's not forget Liddell and TiTo.
@@alfredogonzalez2576 facts. those are the top 4 still. you kinda have to add conor vs khabib even though the fight wasn't really competitive just because of everything outside of the cage
Poor Chael sitting there thinking "When do I get to be hilarious?"
lol true
2:47 he does the best with the camera time he has, not a second wasted lol
When these two argue it's the funniest shit ever lol. "You haven't simulated anybody's death yet." Who the fuck says that? Lmao. I love Urijah.
Aaron Harvey that was too sharp
+Aaron Harvey when did he say it? i didn't catch it
+Alex at the very end
Aaron Harvey just only now watched this video and that part was funny as fuck
Hes right though lol
They remind me of two brothers
me too
And then a meteor hits
Urijahs closing line is the best. You haven't simulated anybodys death yet. Lol
james D sorry but what does that mean?
@@asshole0465027451 it's just stupid but it's funny
@@asshole0465027451 He's saying he hasn't KO'd anyone
..and TJ says Dominick never talked shit before he saw McGregor do it.
I know lol.
+CrazyMonkey CrazyMonkey (monday20) hahaa man, only reason noone has seen it is cause hes been injured.. still captain of the debate team hahaa
***** yeah, no doubt. We fans respond to it, so they keep doing it.
i wouldnt say its a biz move, people talk mind games throughout history... mental edge is a real thing
+mark kevorkian agreed
Would love to see a mismatched buddy cop movie with these two ... all that car time arguing ... who gets the donuts and the protein shakes ... genius!
lol that would be great
Haha that honestly would be brilliant!
Lol xD that would be great!
i usually always hate the top comments but that is actually a really good idea
They fight to a draw at one point.. bust a human traffic sex slave strip club drug ring.. solve an inside job police dept. murder.. use martial arts in the fight scenes.. take a bullet for each other.. become best friends still arguing over donuts and protein shakes at the end. Hey I think you're on to something!
faber should be in holywod he's hilarious i fuckin love his sense of humour
+octojoe seriously lmfao this shit is cash
+octojoe Last sentence is sheer brilliance.
Have you seen when he's arguing with Connor. He and Connor made Dana crack up. 😂 😂 😂
I feel like these two guys admire each other on the low.
I can watch these guys bicker forever
haha thats what were doin here
Chael... what do you think?
"he had a long road back... after i beat him... with one hand" bahahahaha this banter is classic
That's what it's all about right there. They both got off some good lines and they did it without yelling and talking over eachother.
hilarious they're sitting next to each other
6:30 "I mean..he had a long way back after I beat him....With one hand" LOL!!!
"I'm cheering you on, bub! I'm the cheerleader" LMAO
love the rivalry between these two
Green Djinn Dominick kicks his ass every time.
tony bennett except for the first time. Dominick's only loss was handed to him by Urijah.
Green Djinn when he was what 21?
Howirya Doon yep, in his fucking prime and Faber destroyed him. WAR FABER
lolthatsnotswag that was not his prime. that was only his 9th professional fight. he was a "Rookie". you can't go your entire career undefeated. you gotta make mistakes to become better. and DC beat him the 2nd time they met
My favorite mma rivalry of all time. straight class with some jabs & jokes here and there
LOOL...everyone thought he as going to decision mizugaki...no1 expected a TKO. THE DECISIONATOR.
I like that. I'm gonna remember that one! LOL
first time for everything.
i said it before, and ill say it again. "this is a simulated death match, and you haven't simulated anybody's death yet" is by far the best mma quote OF ALL TIME
"this is a simulated death match, and you haven't simulated anyones death yet" AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Lmao, Yea that was an awesome ending. Faber ain't lyin either, because the ref really is the only thing keeping this from being a fight to the death.
u guys know he finished his last fight right? lol for u guys to enter that comment passed that fight is ignorant but on the real note that comment faber made is prolly what caused him to finish the guy n guys the future
culinaryg what are you talking about ahahahah
saztradamus well these guys are talking about how Dominick hasn't finished anyone "how he hasn't simulated anyone's death yet" I'm just saying in that comment Dominick just tko or ko the dude last month on ufc
culinaryg ohhhh okay, yeah you're absolutely right, but before that almost every dominic cruz fight has been a decision win. i personally think he'll beat dillashaw but who knows. dillashaw is weird he goes off sometimes
cruz is sharp.. in and out of the cage...
+mosshark And gay as well!
The dude's fight iq is high!
+Jeff Everett Gay?
Watch Chael closely from 2:47 and prepare to laugh.
Chael was more interesting person in the video and he wasn't part of it
"All I could see is your chin flapping" Dominick Cruz
I'm pretty sure Kenny florian said that
I still go back to this interview. It's hilarious. Fucking gold.
When I watch this I feel like Cruz and Faber missed the mark in life where they could have been really good buddies. They have similar dispositions.
07:36 "he let you live" holy shit that's hilarious
Chael is just sitting there in case the shit really hits the fan.....he will be the one to referee it I guess.
He's judge filling the scorecards for the rounds for these two.
Can you imagine the shit talk in a Conor vs Cruz fight
dark zaku Cruz would murder him in shit talk
Varun Mehrotra nahhhhhhhhh
Yeah Conor would destroy him in every single aspect; verbal and physical.
Cruz would wreck him in the trash talk because he uses statistics, facts, and common sense. McGregor only uses profanity 👎🏼
Conor only does three things. Brings up money. Tries to scream and laugh whenever the other guy talks and swears in his cute Irish voice. That's not great trashtalking like Cruz or Sonnen.
I love that they can sit next to each other and trash talk calmly.
Chael & Dom are such good friends, even called him to announce the Suga fight.
cruz has the narrowest shoulders I have ever seen
So true that's the only reason he makes 135 because of his small shoulders, because he the same heights as some lightweights and bigger than most featherweights. His shoulders are the only reason he looks small
Jorge lopez i think its just that his head is so big it makes his shoulders look small by comparison lol
+Lemon Grab he i s fucking good,,are you blind
bernt v Hansen Cruz is my favorite fighter I just said he has a big head
+Jorge lopez He doesn't seem to be built for fighting..
5:16 I love how they start hand flexing at almost the same time, as if they were going to go right there
I noticed this too, lots of tension for sure. Urijah was doing it a lot more through the video which I was surprised at, he's a pretty calm guy.
Cheal just sitting there is just too funny😂😂
that was one of the most entertaining interviews ive ever seen! good shit to both fighters. HUGE fan of Faber AND Cruz. Respect to all
The last response from Faber was great. These two are funny together.
Meanwhile Chael is thinking how nice Anderson smelled the first time that he met him.
We all need a friend like faber such a nice dude
5:18 Hahahaha I love how Uriah's face went from smiling to serious after saying it's hard to hurt me.
Urijah will win because he has psychic powers 4:56
He didn't tho. Still Love the guy.
"this is a simulated death match and you haven't simulated anyone's death yet." I was on the floor laughing my ass off
"you havent simulated anyones death" on the floor laughing, too good.
you havent simulated anyones death yet.....best part
LMAO!! Yes!! Best part of the whole interview!!!!! Ugh I hope Dom gets him soon
Faber comments here is priceless. This is a very funny interview!!
hahaha. classic, I love it. "This is a simulated death match, and you haven't simulated anyones death yet."
Chin flapping lmao
lol
"you haven't simulated anybody's death yet." LMAO that was great.
This is an awesome video seriously... had to add to favorites
Can't help to love them both
Man that GammaLab advert at the end was some bullshit
quality these guys are great rivals... there love each other one day when there grey and old
hahahaha omfg faber, this is a simulated death match and you havent simulated anybody's death yet, i loled
this is the best interview ever, I laughed so hard towards the end
This is the greatest interview ever.
"This is a simulated death match and you haven't simulated anybody's death yet." haha I love Uriah Faber.
I have all the respect for these two. They have beaten top competition before, and if they keep this rivalry on, we are going to be enjoying good fights.
hilarious interview haha, i love watching these two
I love both these guys :) God Bless you both salute.
3 years out has damaged Dominick he actually seems cool as fuck . He is certainly big enough to beat Dillashaw. I never expected anyone else but Barao to have the belt. I like this match up better. However they are rushing him. Think he should have 1 more fight first.
You need more thumbs up, I personally wouldn't mind seeing a Faber Cruz rematch before Dillashaw. But that's just cuz I want to see them fight again.
Asvp Munny Not gonna happen. TJ will beat Cruz.
Cruz and dillashaw love they're footwork it's going to be ali vs willie pep on the same weightclass!! Can't wait.
Dillashaw in going to win.
VitalYFZ Dillashaw actually studied Cruz's footwork and added it to his game
The odd couple. They secretly like each other.
What a gem this video is..
This interview never gets old :D
So funny that Cruz is basically saying Uriah doesn't have much career left cuz he's older. Shortly after Cruz blows his knee and has had 1 fight in the past 3 years while faber has stayed busy. Watch what u say
+Steve Gutierrez karma
+Steve Gutierrez lol so true. Shortly after this interview Cruz becomes Mr. Glass of MMA, while Urijah is basically MMA's ironman, who shows no signs of slowing down. Always hated the way Cruz fights, Urijah is 100% right Cruz is the decisionator not the dominator. I hope Cruz's style doesn't catch on because it is very Floyd Mayweather esque where you win by out scoring the opponent not by fighting the opponent. It makes for a boring fight IMO.
+bucky thetruck lol people pick and choose on when they like floyd , whats wrong with beating ur opponent for 12 or 5 or 3 rounds my skillz verse yours floyd is 49 0 its not floyds fault fighters cant hit him but he can hit u ....just doesnt make since if u trying to loose then take all the punishment then people gone call u a bum smh
Malike Bennett - I don't think you understand where Im coming from. I agree that Floyd is the best boxer on the earth and i would say he is prob the greatest defensive fighter of all time. He's a tactician. There are prob a lot of people who enjoy watching that style of a fight, Im just not one of them. To me it becomes repetitive and boring. You never see anything exciting or different he never knocks people out he grinds out every victory. While i can appreciate his skills as a boxer, it doesn't mean I have to like watching it. Dominick Cruz falls into a similar category for me. I think he's good but i don't tune in to watch him.
lol my point is its called boxing the beauty is many styles to it things that are boring people dont do floyd is really a genius cause hes so boring people will pay to see him lose smh u cant become the best taking punishment look at anderson silva legend hard to hit no one ever calls him boring he not the same any more
The undefeated undisputed was sitting there calmly
I still love watching this after all these years.
epic interview.. and lol.. watching this post ufc 178.. there was nooo decisions made that day..
Chael is just sitting here like "Why am I here?"
Faber> "Yeah this is a simulated death match... and you haven't simulated anybody's death yet." Damn that was funny!
Gosh you’re gonna go there again-Cruz. Easily the most underrated moment from this interview! Cruz implied he had Faber had the “simulated death match” conversation on multiple occasions
ten years from now these guys are totally gonna be the best freinds ever :D
These guys respect each other so much but they hate each other so much lol
5:20 "it's not so hard to punch him" i laughed so hard because with all that tension there it was just halarious and i'm not saying that because i like faber I actually like cruz more but just funny none the less.
This is gold.
i love the rivalry between these 2
hahaha Faber smashed it at the end!
The interviewer was just picking for some shit talking. I mean, he asked the same question *every* time. *Every* time he asked the exact same question. Jesus.
XD nothing but uphill about half way through left me laughing pretty hard at the end there.
I hope these guys can be friends after they retire because they're both so articulate and such great ambassadors for the sport. No reason for them not to get along beyond needing animosity for that competitor's edge.
This is pretty funny. They are so respectful and calm in there dislike of each other haha. I have seen other athletes screaming and throwing shit lol.
old married couple
this was fucking entertaining, glad I came across it
this is GREAT!!!
"when I beat him.. with one hand..."
Hahaa. Lmao. Greatest argument in MMA history
those two should get interviewed every day! Always together.
faber is the man, he cracks me up. simulated death match. no one can get him mad an interview like Cruz though.
"you haven't simulated anyone's death yet" bahahah!
Best part of the video lol, that and when Dom mentioned his chin.
7:27 -Wrong.. -Right.
One of MMA's greatest rivalries
these two should have a reality show together, it would be soooooo funny.
This might be the best shit talking of all time ok maybe not the best but still they are like polar opposites.. more of a Cruz fan because toward the end you can see how Faber acts like immature and defensive but I cant help but like Faber too lol
acts immature*
lol, what the fuck is Chael doing? does anybody notice how he's poking Dominic?
Don't get me wrong. I'm a Chael fan all the fuckin' way..... but this shit is funny, lol.
Urijah just fuels the fire it's hilarious hahaha
thank you father for these two warrior spirits. forgive us for our pride. nothing we can do is our our own. i do not have the bravery that you have given these men to combat the forces they are willing to face. help us to grow and learn from each other instead of continue in our ways of pride and self righteousness. thank you for these awesome men. thank you for there brave hearts. you are god alone. our strength is your gift.
this is a simulated death match and you haven't simulated anybody's death yet, lmfao!
