Dillashaw as a champ looks so weak now

[Trifick]

He got dropped by a gust of wind behind the ear yet took 2 of Codys hardest shots right on the chin and recovered instantly at 135.

Recovery vs Saved by the bell.

 

[Sherdognut]

lol ok hocus pocus. keep talking about this make believe 5 win 1 loss theory. do you know how ridiculous you sound?

That streak has been consistent since he begun his UFC career and has already lasted 4 intervals. TJ is cursed, deal with it.

 

[Quietus]

He got hit behind the ear, lost his equilibrium, and couldn't recover while eating shots on the way down. His chin didn't really have a factor in this stoppage. It all started with a shot right behind the ear.

It started with the headkick, watch again, Cejudo ducks under TJ's punch, then shoves him off balance, catches him with a kick to the jaw/face on the way back up, TJ moves laterally but then his legs give out a second later and Cejudo seizes on him until the stoppage.

True, but the way he got pushed away by Cejudo before that indicated that he didn't have strength at all, seemed drained as hell.

 

[MillingMeSoftly]

The glancing kick did him in

Lol how on earth can Dana kill the 125 division after that

Did he die?

Naw it actaully started from his ego and how dismissive he was of Henry - and pretty much anyone not in his inner circle - trying to make a weight that he has not made in over a decade.

Throw in an inflated sense of his skills - he and his fans seem to think he is some sort of Vaysl Lomachenko of mma.

The next step is he needs to give Cejudo a shot at 135 for the title. It's a win- win. If he wins then he can blame the weight cut and he will still be the legitimate bantamweight champion but if Cejudo wins then he will be a double champ. This is the only way and not to mention there will be some good hype to the lead up

 

[IrritatedTomcat]

He drained himself to go down in weight

Yup.

If henry does it to him at 135 then he's in trouble... if not then intelligent people see it as another reason you shouldn't cut too much weight...

 

[welcometohavoc]

He drained himself to go down in weight so he could have an advantage and better chance at getting a second belt. Yet he couldn't even last a minute in the cage. Can he still go back up and call himself a champ? He needs to do the honorable thing and just hand cejudo that 135lb belt... when he works up the courage the messenger will be willing to give him a shot/

In everyone's mind, Cejudo is a double champ.

 

[welcometohavoc]

Yup.

When you drop that much weight you are going to get weaker and run the risk of getting knocked out which he did, the biggest looser here is Dana and the UFC as we all know he wants the munchkin division quashed and that plan just backfired in spectacular fashion.

This is nonsense. Cejudo is a big 125 and could easily fight at 135, and TJ himself said Henry probably had a harder time making weight than he did. Back when Cejudo was having trouble making 125, he was walking around 142 lbs which almost what TJ's walking weight is.

Add to that TJ was jumping around and acting fine after the weight cut
