If anyone doesn’t need a manager it’s Cruz😂

[@Kegman24]

O’Malley

[@tonyhoward9268]

I don’t know if I would recommend every fighter do this but Dominick is probably the best person on the entire roster to represent himself. The dude could have been a lawyer! He is probably better than the majority of managers out there honestly.

[@talon3684]

My boy Dom stays ahead of the curve. He makes sense of making sense on a regular basis in the UFC 😄

[@PurpleRain500]

The most well rounded fighters/entertainers always manage the business aspect too.

[@holdencawffle626]

Dom is a fkn badass. Always has been

[@nickm4083]

pay a manager 10% for a phone call you could make lol real smart

[@absent72]

Dom gave himself a 10% raise with that one

[@shahrukhbhuiyan1225]

Great info by cruz

[@waltermartin8892]

Cruz is a Legend!!

[@danielsolis9780]

Just what I wanted to see

[@johno30197]

Theres legend's and there's journeyman what can I say..

[@TMoney76]

Comment was so good you posted it twice

[@despizedicon]

They blur out when he made the little bit sign with his hand?

[@inyamboimenda8631]

Don't think I can watch a Cruz Helwani interview without expecting Ariel to sing him happy Birthday 🎂🎉

[@kyleevans4446]

Cruz flexing the montriex there is right 👊🤣🔴

[@BOO-dq4vl]

I am something of manager myself

[@danielsolis9780]

I got the noti for this

[@jordancarter4060]

Dont some still negotiate before each fight? Conor, Diaz, title holders etc..

[@avidreality3392]

the big guys do....the biggest stars but thats probably less than 10 of them

[@Aqua_Holic_Fishing]

Because he thinks outside the box with everything. Not a box of rocks like most fighters on the roster.

[@johnny_eason_iii]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@marcusbailey3988]

Because he has a good head on his shoulders

[@johno30197]

There's legend's and there's journeyman what can I say...

[@Zecoolamericano]

that also applies to HENRICO special justices....their INCOMES will be TAXED EXTRA this year....for ML or molestation hospital molestation is correct.

[@PTO_Finesse]

Okay let’s say Sean wins and Marlon wins, could it be winner fights for the belt? Or how about if Yan and Dom wins, same scenario?

[@Zecoolamericano]

VISIT sturgis south dakota or north dakota....quit tobaccoo

[@ramonbriones4487]

I guess Dom doesn't understand he can still negotiate his contract. Many fighters have done it. Especially if they're on a winning streak.

[@Zecoolamericano]

UNDERGROUND fight league....keep the TRAFFICK alive ;)

[@Aqua_Holic_Fishing]

Dom kinda looking like Baker Mayfield these days.

[@pastorigotti8833]

Cruz about to Cruz past chito burrito 🌯

[@natjonestower3035]

Cruz will feign injury before the inevitable beating he will receive.

[@marcxiong8332]

Dirty business

[@antonioedwards1309]

Yep, I have no idea why every guy is jumping to pay for Ali's Gucci for him.

[@marcusbailey3988]

Because he has a head on his shoulders

[@natjonestower3035]

A big one at that.

[@ahumblebarb7215]

I started to really like dom when he was the first person to call out DC and his horrendous commentary alot of people should speak up about it and his influence on rankings in UFC 4

[@immigranthustlemind8655]

He was mad because DC took his position of commentating UFC paper view fights since the other two positions is set for Rogan and Enic. He is sour loser. He used to be a good fighter but the game evolved and he is still living a past delusion.

NO biggie amin k has a vehicle.....but i don't want touch it much.....IM RECLUSIVE in the USA.

FLOOD the system with DOPE.....USE imitation controlled substances to TEST someone.....or give them a SMALLER quantity...to newbies to test if they are "not markign the bills" or something....protect the local dope dealers.

[@alex98christ]

That’s why his payout low.

[@Ajayzmma]

Dom the goat but he getting finished by chito

[@drewdrewson1384]

don't they bring you sponsors outside of the cage?

[@jgreen802]

The UFC has to approve all sponsors inside and outside the cage.

[@averagejoe5016]

@@jgreen802 outside the cage? No it’s only inside the cage I am pretty sure

[@estvescalders6597]

@@jgreen802 yeah man its only inside of the cage. An odd problem I guess that can occur is that sponsors outside of the cage probably care most about you social media followings over how skilled you are as a fighter.

MEN beef all the time

DR. aamir mahmoood....oh ive been working with you since yo u were 18 on s'en bas les clawis "his estate" knows that man is a HATER...he doesn't like me....SO BOYCOTT AROOBA mentality.....its in his name....RMH employees will have to pay for IT....out of their OWN incomes ;) by FEDERAL LAW....JMU says so.

[@vipset87]

cuz hes cheap lol jk

[@Zecoolamericano]

find GINSENG honey holes in WVA....protect them with your life....but be gentle to NON sheisty people desperate to eat.

[@natjonestower3035]

I dislike this man to no end. His chances at gold were gone nearly a decade ago, he's a bad commentator- he'd argue with a tree stump, his biggest fan is himself. Can't wait to see him finally go away.

[@avoterz123]

Don’t be a hater lol

[@Cub__]

Man said he'd argue with a tree stump, that's hilarious 🤣
