Future UFC Hall of Famer Dominick Cruz becomes the latest MMA legend to enter the podcast world.
Dominick Cruz is one of the prominent UFC stars who have announced their retirement so far in 2025. Ahead of his scheduled retirement fight at UFC Seattle in February, Cruz suffered another major injury. He withdrew from the event and withdrew without rescheduling the booked fight against Rob Font.
Since his retirement in February, Cruz remains one of the prominent UFC analysts and is a frequent presence on UFC pay-per-view cards. Cruz is a prototypical “X’s and O’s” MMA analyst, breaking down fights and advanced techniques in ways the casual fan can understand.
Many fans have wondered if Cruz would host a podcast to further his broadcasting career and continue sharing his analysis of the top stories in MMA. Luckily, fans got their answer this week.

Cruz’s podcast announcement received rave reviews from MMA fans on social media. The first episode will be released on November 4.
Cruz is considered by many to be the greatest bantamweight of all time, with multiple title reigns to prove his case. He was the inaugural UFC bantamweight champion and made his first defense of the title against Urijah Faber at UFC 132.
Despite picking up wins against the likes of Demetrious Johnson and TJ Dillashaw, injuries repeatedly delayed Cruz’s career. He underwent a three-year hiatus due to injury between 2011 and 2014, before returning at UFC 178 and knocking out Takeya Mizugaki in the first round.
Cruz’s split-decision victory over Dillashaw in January 2016 is considered one of the greatest comebacks in UFC history. After defeating Faber in their UFC 199 trilogy, Cruz relinquished the title to Cody Garbrandt at UFC 207.
