Earlier this year, TJ Dillashaw pulled off perhaps one of the most shocking upsets of all time, defeating then Bantamweight Champion Renan Barao via TKO in the fifth round. Dillashaw, who was a 6-to-1 underdog, dominated the fight from the opening bell, eventually stopping the Brazilian and claiming the UFC Bantamweight Championship.

After the fight, it was debated whether Barao deserved an immediate rematch because oh how one sided the fight was, but after weeks of speculation, Dana White confirmed that Barao would get the rematch.

After the UFC 175 weigh in show, UFC Tonight hosted a live show where Dana White announced the rematch.
This fight should be a very interesting one, and even after a dominant display in their first fight, I have a feeling Dillashaw will be the underdog here.
Tweet me and let me know what you think about this rematch.
