On paper, this looked to be one of the UFC’s best Fight Night cards of the year. And by all measures, it over-delivered on that promise. TJ Dillashaw and Cory Sandhagen went absolutely nip-tuck for 25 minutes to a razor thin split decision that saw Dillashaw get his first win since 2018. Kyler Phillips and Raulian Paiva showed up huge in the co-main event for a brutal slobberknocker. And Darren Elkins got a classic comeback win over Darrick Minner.
So, does Dillashaw need another victory before getting a shot at the bantamweight title? Is Paiva about to hit the rankings at 135 lbs? And is the UFC about to start treating Maycee Barber like a top prospect again?
