TJ avenged Urijah's losses to Barao and did it in spectacular fashion. It was a wrestler out-striking a striker. It was reminiscent of Weidman vs. Anderson. Very few thought that TJ could do it but he shocked the world. Renan is also all heart and tough as hell too.
It's even better that TJ didn't finish Barao in the 1st round. People could have said it was a lucky punch. But TJ dominated Barao for 5 full rounds in all aspects of MMA. Can't deny that one.
Dillshaw's in fight intelligence, wrestling background, and great well-roundedness remind me of another wrestler and that's Chris Weidman.
