How Dillashaw beats Barao

[MichaelCole1]

And also this, Fighters who seem the most invincible at a given time are always the ones who fall the hardest. This is a game of punching and kicking, anyone who has the slightest bit of fighting experience knows that when your dealing with 2 high level guys it takes just 1 good shot to shift momentum or win a fight.

When Michael McDonald improves a bit more in his grappling he'll be the one to beat Barao.

or I still think if Cruz comes back he'd box circles around Renan and win a decision.

I thought you chinamen were supposed to be smart....

This one got me bad.

100% this! Barao is legit, don't get me wrong, but I think TJ has the best chance of all to pull off the upset. His fight with Mike Easton really showed off his striking game. One mistake from Barao, and TJ will capitalize on it.

 

[Redhawks100]

He counters with a head kick after Barao throws a wild overhand, sending Barao to the canvas unconscious, and the MMA world explodes.

 

[The ScorpioN]

He is going to get crushed by Barao. He loses to no one unless he moves up to face Aldo... now that would be fun to watch.

Shame that they'd never fight.

Shhhhh, Dillashaw's sleeping.

Dillashaw could beat Barao but the fight is happening too soon. Him fighting/beating Mizugaki and then maybe Eduardo would've been the best way for him to get his shot AND be ready for it.

 

[wartor]

Well it is MMA, so sure, he has about a 10% chance of it happening. Most likely scenario is if Barao comes in injured or sick. If Barao is 100% and treats the fight 100% TJ can never win, he is not as good let alone better. I hope TJ has really improved.

 

[corrupted]

I want it to be competitive.... But really .. Barao is just on some next level shit

 

[fortheo]

wobbles barao somehow, then sinks in the rnc.

he wouldn't be able to submit Barao even if Renan is dead

 

[fortheo]

he wouldn't be able to submit Barao even if Renan is dead

A very bold statement haha. I think Barao will win too, but Dillashaw could definitely submit Barao.

 

[manapua]

You guys forget tj lost to assuncao not too long ago? Barao is gonna make him look real brand new to fighting.

It's funny how Alpha Males are always the runner ups in their respective divisions, should've been called the Beta-Males from the getgo.

I hear that Scientology works wonders for people.

Seems like nobody's giving T.J. Dillashaw a chance against Renan Barao at UFC 173.

But T.J. already knows how to beat Barao, having cornered Urijah Faber at UFC 149.

Here, Fightland takes a look at how Dillashaw plans to unseat Barao and claim the UFC bantamweight title ...

Dillishaw got the shotgun permit from the NSAC. He now has a chance.
