Meanwhile, Dillashaw made his return to the bantamweight division back in July 2021 after an unsuccessful flyweight run and a two-year suspension after testing positive for recombinant human erythropoietin. The 36-year-old veteran beat Cory Sandhagen in his bantamweight return, marking the fifth victory in his last six fights.
Now, Dillashaw looks to win the championship that was stripped from him back in 2019. He racked up three successful defenses across two reigns, however, a lot of time has passed since then. Defeating Sandhagen (by split decision) is one thing, but competing for champions hip gold is something else.
Hopefully, Dillashaw is prepared for the upcoming UFC 280 co-main event. Sterling is a fantastic fighter and will do everything he can to hold on to his championship.
