Sherdog's live Bellator 298 coverage will begin Friday at 6:30 p.m. ET.
Jason Herzog gets the nod to officiate this lightweight affair. Davis has gone the distance in eight consecutive bouts. The 33-year-old Cruz has enjoyed a resurgence since being released by the UFC in 2021 following a failed two-fight run in the organization. Cruz explodes out of the gate and gets his opponent’s attention with a flying front kick to the chest. Davis lures Cruz into the clinch and slows the pace along the fence. He works to a rear waistlock and looks for an opportunity to trip.
Davis lands a jumping knee and a series of rapid-fire shots to the side of the head, as his Brazilian counterpart shoots on a takedown. Cruz goes nowhere. Davis lands a knee off the break, slams home a right hand and narrowly misses a spinning wheel kick. Cruz moves forward and absorbs a left hand over the top. Davis keeps his opponent guessing with feints and various attacks. Cruz stays light on his feet and tries another takedown.
