T.J. Dillashaw says ‘UFC doing a good job pumping up’ Sean O’Malley (video)

Tonight T.J. Dillashaw returns from a USADA enforced absence to take on Cory Sandhagen in the main event of UFC Vegas 32. This is the first fight for Dillashaw since losing to Henry Cejudo in 2019 for the UFC flyweight title.

When Dillashaw received his ban for EPO use he was forced to relinquish the UFC bantamweight title. That belt was won Cejudo with a win over Marlon Moraes. After Cejudo retired the belt was won by Petr Yan after he defeated Jose Aldo. Yan promptly lost the belt to Aljimain Sterling, after he was disqualified for an illegal knee.
