No he didn't. TJ beat the best Barao, and would beat him again.
Go back and watch Barao's fights against Eddie Wineland and Michael MacDonald. Barao lost the early rounds in both fights. The only reason he was able to win was because he capitalized on Winelands lack of speed, and MacDonald gassed out in the late rounds. TJ didn't give Barao a chance to capitalize on mistakes because he didn't make any.
TJ won fair and square. He beat the best version of Barao.
