If the UFC isn’t careful fans might start to think Dominick Cruz vs. Urijah Faber is a yearly occurrence that comes around every July. Following their Bantamweight title fight last July at UFC 132 the two will likely feel a bit of déjà vu when they step back into the Octagon on July 7th at UFC 148 for their third meeting. The rivals will square off in the same exact arena, one year and five days after Cruz evened the score with a unanimous decision victory.

Four big, important, events happened this past month, and one of them wasn’t even technically an event. We began the month with UFC 132: Faber vs. Cruz and closed it with Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson. In between was arguably the more intriguing part of the month with the UFC 133 lineup changes and the Alistair Overeem saga.
