Phoenix International Raceway President Bryan R. Sperber announced today that the track will sponsor UFC® Bantamweight Champion and former star of The Ultimate Fighter® Live on FX, Dominick Cruz during his upcoming title fight in 2013. Sperber announced that PIR’s logo will be visible on Cruz’s trunks and on his sponsorship banner that will be posted in the Octagon® prior to the start of his upcoming fight.
“We are very excited to be sponsoring Dominick Cruz in his upcoming championship fight to retain the UFC® Bantamweight title,” said Sperber. “We believe this is the first time that a track has sponsored a UFC® fighter and the fact that Dominick is both an Arizonan and a NASCAR fan made this a great opportunity for us to support him in regaining his belt.”
Cruz, who will serve as Honorary Pace Car Driver for the Nov. 11 AdvoCare 500 at Phoenix International Raceway, will perform the same duties during the SUBWAY Fresh Fit 500™ on March 3, 2013.
