Close to happening
yes, because had you asked that person a week ago, they would have not been aware of the eye-opening beating TJ put on a guy at Barao's level
this isn't a "flavor of the month" thing, this is people finally seeing what TJ is capable of. It's not changing sides, it's absorbing new information and adapting to it
And you would have never said this if someone asked you the same question a week ago.
Not saying he isn't very good, but it's funny how TJ became a superhero after beating Barao.
Barao just took the beating of a lifetime, a sustained 5 round trouncing that ended in a stoppage, why on earth would he be near a crack at the title any time soon with TJ holding it?
Barao is at least 2 wins away from another crack at TJ. Also Faber is 0-2 against Barao, why would you make that fight again?
Since both guys are coming off losses TJ should probably be fighting literally almost anyone else. Raphael Assuncao is the fight everyone should be talking about.
