TJ Dillashaw out of May 8th UFC main event vs. Cory Sandhagen

The return of TJ Dillashaw has been put on hold.

One of Cory Sandhagen’s training partners, Justin Wetzell, first tweeted that the former UFC bantamweight champion was out of their upcoming bout on May 8 due to a cut suffered during a training session.

#Desperate TJ must not have liked what he seen on tape and needs more time, he's pushing the fight back to June because of a "cut" sustained in training.

Shortly thereafter, MMA Junkie’s Mike Bohn shed new light into the matter and said the fight wasn’t off just yet, but Dillashaw has since confirmed his withdrawal from the contest.
