Michael Bisping is perhaps one of the most vocal critics of steroid use in MMA, but ‘The Count’ can’t help but respect T.J. Dillashaw for coming clean about his EPO usage.
Dillashaw, the former UFC bantamweight champion, was suspended for two years by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) in 2019 after it was revealed that the 35-year-old tested positive for EPO following his first-round stoppage loss to Henry Cejudo at UFC Fight Night 143.
Dillashaw will make his long awaited comeback against No. 2-ranked bantamweight Cory Sandhagen in this Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 27 main event at the UFC APEX, and Bisping is excited to see how The Ultimate Fighter 14 finalist performs after a two-year layoff.
