Dillashaw: "I Get To Make History"

UFC bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw has been called a snake by Conor McGregor for leaving his Team Alpha Male squad. He’s been called a fighter trying to kill off the flyweight division by the man he will fight for that weight class’ title this weekend, 125-pound champion Henry Cejudo.

In pro wrestling jargon, Dillashaw might be called a heel. In mixed martial arts, Dillashaw is apparently fine with being the “bad guy” as long as he gets what he wants on fight night in Brooklyn.

“I’m pumped about this,” he said of the UFC Fight Night main event.
