TJ Dillashaw returned to the octagon last Saturday (24), after more than two years of inactivity, and defeated Cory Sandhagen by split decision from the judges in a very balanced fight. With the victory, the former champion probably qualified to fight for the bantamweight title against the winner of aljamain sterling e Petr yan. The dream of regaining the title, however, may have to wait a little longer.
