Dayum Dillashaw is definitely for real. Hopefully he and Dominick can get in there soon. I think Dilliashaw puts Cruz away early. There's no way he can hang with TJ's style in his first fight back from another knee injury.

Okay Joe stop the hyperbole. That's like telling dogs not to bark. It's Joe's nature.

Joe, I don't think ANYONE is questioning the stoppage. I think the only one complaining was Barao, but damn was he helpless there. My best count was 30 strikes TJ landed with no answer from Barao.

Someone on Twitter compared it to a Brutality from Scorpion in MKX while Fox Sports UFC referenced Tekken.

I knew Barao wasn't making it out of the 4th round. Too winded and was getting hammered. How he didn't go down, I'll never know. Dillishaw has an irritating, yet effective style. Break now or break later. Either way, you're breaking. Ya, Barao was getting rocked at the end of the third and his corner obviously knew he was in trouble and had no answer with that WIN! stuff. As MMA evolves I think you'll see more of the kind of movement and angles Dillashaw was using.

There's no way he can hang with TJ's style in his first fight back from another knee injury. Perhaps have Cruz face Barao when he comes back. Hopefully these injuries haven't taken too much of a toll on him.

Fair enough, I guess looking at the fight a weeks ago and than this one I jus draw a little different comparison. Damn good performance by TJ and I feel he has now showed himself to be the real deal.

I had underestimated Dillashaw and maybe overestimated Barao. I thought the first fight was just a bad night for Barao and he would fix that tonight.
Glad I was 100% wrong!!! TJ is absolutely legit, and its nice to see Team Alpha Male keep a title around their camp!

Hopefully these injuries haven't taken too much of a toll on him. I think that is a little wishful thinking with the toll Cruz knees have taken but if people are saying he's the one TJ "must" defeat than I think they need to bring expectation down a bit. However, Cruz with battered knees can still put on a good performance. I had underestimated Dillashaw and maybe overestimated Barao. I thought the first fight was just a bad night for Barao and he would fix that tonight. Glad I was 100% wrong!!! TJ is absolutely legit, and its nice to see Team Alpha Male keep a title around their camp! I think that was the case initially but it look like Barao has no confidence what so ever while TJ confidence is sky high. He showed he's the real deal and is speed is so nasty he will cause a lot of problems. Won't be long before people scream for him and Mighty Mouse.

The Four Horsewomen... not as dominant as the Four Horsemen. It would be like if Flair's choices for the other three were Rocky King, Tim Horner, and Kendall Windham.

Out of Ronda's posse, Duke is the one with the best looks. It could be beneficial to WWE if they hire Ronda's friend. Shayna Baszler is getting into wrestling and Natalya has worked with her during her time away from WWE.

Barao might start thinking "I could lose 10 less pounds on the weight cut and make a ton of cash with that Irish money machine".
