T.J. Dillashaw is extremely confident he can beat the the best in the world, like Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor (he and the interim 145-pound champion almost came to blows back in February), and rightfully so.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Bantamweight titleholder wreaked havoc over previous 135-pound king Renan Barao (twice) and Joe Soto during his reign at the top. Most recently, Dillashaw -- Thrillashaw, Killashaw -- toppled "The Baron" at the UFC on FOX 16 mixed martial arts (MMA) event last month via fourth-round technical knockout.
Now, and as we so desperately await this dream match up, the 29-year-old has picked a fight with the man who unified the World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) and UFC bantamweight titles, Dominick Cruz (via Bleacher Report).
