T.J. Dillashaw is now ready to face the original T.J. Dillashaw, Dominick Cruz

The good news for Renan Barao is that he won’t have to face T.J. Dillashaw again. In his "just for good measure" rematch with the current bantamweight champ he was stormed, looted, picked apart, cut into neat lines and then blown into a cloud of particles by the speedier, far more confident Dillashaw. It was a competitive fight for a little bit (if you squinted), then it became laughable. Dillashaw was styling on Barao by the end of the first round in Chicago, keeping his hands down around his belt loops, looking more like a playground taunt than a man in danger of losing his title.
