UFC on Fox 16 in Chicago this July continues to fill up, and specifically it continues to fill up with fights in the UFC's lightweight division.
The latest such 155 lb. bout pits Daron Cruickshank against James Krause, with both men needing to get back into the win column.
Cruickshank has just one victory in his last four fights, coming after a stretch of five wins in seven previous UFC bouts. He tried to make a quick turnaround for his last fight after he took some brutal eye pokes from K.J. Noons in December, leading to a no contest, but he was taken out by Beneil Dariush in the second round at UFC 185 last month.
As for Krause, he's dropped back to back decisions after wins in two of his first three UFC bouts. In his most recent appearance at UFC 184, he was edged in a split decision by Valmir Lozaro.
UFC on Fox 16 hits Chicago's United Center on July 25, headlined by a Bantamweight Championship rematch between T.J. Dillashaw and Renan Barao.
