Former UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz has agreed to fight for the first time since 2022. Verbal agreements are in place for Cruz (24-4 MMA, 7-3 UFC) to face Rob Font (21-8 MMA, 11-7 UFC) in the UFC Fight Night 252 co-main event Feb. 22 at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle. A person with knowledge of the situation informed MMA Junkie that both parties have agreed following a report by ESPN that cited UFC CBO Hunter Campbell. Cruz, 39, most recently competed in a knockout loss to Marlon Vera in August 2022.
