T.J. Dillashaw insists Aljamain Sterling is ‘most beatable champion’ after losing to him at UFC 280

T.J. Dillashaw doesn’t have any regrets about taking the fight with UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling.

Dillashaw (17-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) came into his UFC 280 title fight against Sterling (22-3 MMA, 14-3 UFC) with a shoulder injury but decided to roll the dice on competing anyway. The worst case scenario happened as Dillashaw’s shoulder popped out early in the fight. With Dillashaw compromised, Sterling dominated Dillashaw en route to a second-round TKO stoppage, but Dillashaw said he was always going to take the chance in what he considered a very winnable fight.
