Welcome to Midnight Mania!
TJ Dillashaw has on the sidelines for a long time, and that stay is likely to continue even further. The former Bantamweight champion last competed in January 2019, getting knocked out by Henry Cejudo on fight night and USADA a couple weeks later. His EPO usage banned him from competition for two years, but since regaining eligibility, Dillashaw is eager to make his return. Related
Unfortunately for Dillashaw, a clash of heads has resulted in a nasty cut just above his right eye. “I’m sad to say that I have to be pulled from my fight on May 8th due to a cut received from a head butt while drilling,” Dillashaw wrote on Instagram. “Rescheduling the fight as soon as possible.”

Welcome to Midnight Mania!
One Championship might just have a phenom on their hands. Christian Lee, the promotion’s 22-year-old “Warrior,” looked to defend his Welterweight crown earlier tonight opposite Timofey Nastyukhin.
The match didn’t last long.
After a patient start from the champion, Lee found his opening. Nastyukhin jumped forward to engage, but Lee timed him with a left hand that rocked the Russian. When Nastyukhin tried to change things up with a takedown attempt, Lee punished him with a positively violent barrage of strikes.
