Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) bantamweight titleholder TJ Dillashaw put forth a strikingly one-sided whooping on former pound-for-pound star Renan Barao at UFC 173, which left many mixed martial arts (MMA) fans and pundits in awe.
The 29-year-old was in the midst of a complete sweep on all the judges' scorecards inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena on the evening of May 24, 2014, before sending the Brazilian packing with a head kick and follow-up punches in the final frame.
Dillashaw was pegged to rematch Barao twice, once at UFC 177 and another time at UFC 186, but the latter suffered a disastrous weight cut, while the former bowed out of their rescheduled April bout with an injured rib.
