this is probalby the performance of the year !!!! unbelievable

The fall of the Brazilian champions and the rise of the American champions. ’Murica!

Man I feel bad for Barao he got his ass whooped, the face he made in the post fight interview was a man that was defeated. He may never come back from that, imagine what an ass whooping like that does to your confidence...

I read up on Barao, he had a tough go of it growing up, his family was really dirt poor, sometimes they'd go without food, he got his ass kicked a lot by bigger kids until he started hanging out at a gym where the trainers took him under their wing and kept him fed and out of trouble.

I think Renan Barao underestimated Dilishaw. Everyone was saying that Barao would destroy Dilishaw and that this fight wouldn't last long and i think that Barao bought into his own hype.

tj's performance here was so incredible that people just decided mid-fight that barao is a can. he dominated a guy on a 30 fight win streak like he was a rookie. it's almost too unbelievable to generate amazement

Happy meals all round at Team Alpha Male!

If Renan Barao is truly the pound for pound best fighter (according to Dana), then why isn't he getting an immediate rematch? Fuck, Dana spews out such garbage XD

Oh shit the kid really pulled off. TJ dillishaw is the man

Fucking hell, T.J was on point last night, never seen anyone preform so good!

I was there. That was an awesome fight! My first UFC event, and I wasn't even that big a fan, but after that I am now. Dillashaw owned that match.

Dance now, Barao, dance now.

TJ was absolutely amazing, goosebumps the whole time, it reminded me when I first saw Cain fight, absolutely beautiful job.

I might be literally 1 of 10 people who thought he could win. But not like this. I thought he would Sonnen/Silva him at the most, but he made Barao look like an amateur striker in there. And I don't even think dillishaw expected that. Good for you TJ.

I got chills, I honostely thought Barao was going to finish him early, tj is a fucken beast, but god damn Barao is tuff as fuck.

So happy Dillashaw and Lawler won, 2 great fighters at their best right now.

Respect from the UK to the new champ Dillashaw, what a fighter!! just pure domination over Barao, he seems to have all the tools: speed, power, pure athleticism, footwork, head movement, elusiveness. I hope he remains champ for a long time.

Dillashaw has improved so much that I'm amazed. I thought for sure he was gonna get schooled. What a fight. Hats off!

One of the best performances I've ever seen. I'm glad he didn't get that first round knockout because he got a chance to show how much better he was on this night!

Didn't see that coming from TJ.. What an amazing performance! He fought a beautiful fight

Tj looked freaking amazing I didn't think he was going to win but wow he proved me and everyone who didn't think he was going to win wrong

8 out of 9 ufc champions are americans , americans fighters are really taking over the sport.

Stayed up till 6am watching this and it was definitely worth it. Best fight ive ever seen.

TJ Dillashaw is a legend, a truly complete mixed martial artist, so many unforgettable memories over the years, I remember being shocked by Tj with the upset win the UFC Bantamweight championship at UFC 173 against Renan Barao, good times man 👏👏👏

I woke this morning hoping it had been a nightmare. No it wasnt... the thing that hurt the most is how Barao lost, he never came back from that punch in the 1st round.. awful to see an amazing champion lose like that. Im already saving for the rematch, i'll probably have a heart attack watching it.

And I remember people saying "poor dillashaw, he's gonna get smashed, big mismatch, why even bother and so and and so forth. BARELY ANYONE gave him a chance. I thought Barao would beat him, but I didn't count out TJ, and after the fort round, I knew he had it. Congrats TJ!!!

thats crazy man... i remember this kid on the ultimate fighter kickin ass. now a few years of hard work he ends up at the top and takes out barao. that's a great story man.

Now we just need Gus to win against Jones. Here's hoping.

Wow I didn't see the fight... didn't see that one coming.

Man, congrats to TJ, he shocked the world and put on a great performance. I'm still a huge Barao fan and I believe he will come back stronger.

so well deserved!!! what a fight!

he just literally dismantled what alot of people thought was a top 3 p4p fighter and yet he is super humble got to love and respect the dude for that

Crazy to think just two years ago he was on TUF and now he's champion. I didn't think he was gonna win, I was even surprised he got a shot at the belt. Congratulations, TJ.

"All you have to do is believe your the best in the world and you'll get here!" Poor Urijah, right behind him lol

Maybe he was on EPO.

TJ proved us all wrong, congrats TJ you earned it : )

Greatest win streak of all time

to me, this fight is gauranteed a nomination for "Fight of the Year", and "Upset of the Year"

One of best upset in the ufc history... As barao's fan,Tonight is sad night..But congrats for new champion Dillashaw. Hope barao get well

One of the best upsets ever. Its funny how every one underestimating tj before the fight every one says K.O. round 1 lol.

Excellent performance! Great event.

HOLY FUCKING JESUS. I even said that TJ Dillishaw had the best chance out of anybody to beat Barao.. but I didn't think it'd actually happen.

Does anyone know the name of the song coming up after the winnig of TJ?

Barao should be in no rush for a rematch. First time in his career he got his ass kicked like this no one has even done this to him. Physically and mentally Dillashaw had Barao beaten from the start of their fight. Time for Barao to take a big step back regroup fuck a quick rematch.

That performance was impressive

I seriously thought TJ was going to get mauled in this fight. Through out the whole fight he dominated Barao like he was the champion. Holy shit I just can't believe how great of a performance he put in this fight. Hope for a bloody good rematch :)

Amazing fight. couldn't believe it myself Saturday.

Oh my God!! I did not see that coming!

I hope Barao gets another shot, but not any time soon, considering he got dominated every second of the fight. It'd be better for him to sit down and go back to the drawing board and reevaluate his strategies and plans with his team.

What a performance TJ is the man

Tj throws that beautiful left punch and left high kick combo like Dominick Cruz.

Sigue siendo mi gallo Renan barao!!

I still can't really wrap my head around it. Un-fucking-believable. UFC is as real as it gets

Very humble.

i honestly thought that barao would tear dillashaw apart... goddamn was i wrong congrats to tj

go back and watch this one again, it seriously could be the greatest performance in the history of the ufc. to put on a clinic against a barao level guy pretty much says it all. i really cant think of an equal to this in boxing or any other combat sport. we'll see how barao comes back from it. you really cant blame him but he was broke by the 2nd round, and a guy of his ability should never be broken mentally like that, ever. i honestly think he will pass on the immediate rematch. there's no way his confidence will be where it needs to be without a couple of dominating wins, which he will most certainly put together.

Hell yea badass fight TJ, lot of people counted him out but boy brought his A game!!

Dana must be happy as hell, he now has a marketable Bantamweight champ.

Is not that i doubt TJ skills, is just that Barão is a freaking monster in the octagon.Hat's off for TJ, he deserved the victory, fought like a champ. I still believe Barão will come back stronger, scarier and get that belt again

Is it just me, or was Dillashaw moving alot like Cruz? Dillashaw did an excellent job! Staying out of the pocket, landing some good hits, and ultimately being the aggressor against a dangerous opponent. I hope Dillashaw stays champ for a long time because he was "destined to lose" in the eyes of MANY, yet he proved all of those people wrong.

Un-real performance !!!

"Ssssssssss" - tj dillashaw

It's funny how all the "fans" of TJ are all coming out now saying things like "I always knew he was going to win." I don't recall many people supporting TJ before the fight.

Renan's translator looks like some evil harry potter villain

That was insane! Man Dillashaw looked abosultely amazing. He fuckin dismantled him like it was nothing! That was literally one of the most exciting and surprising fights ive ever watched!

so shocked that TJ won!

Biggest Fall From Grace For Both Men. Renan Went From Being Named The Bantamweight King To Losing To Complete Nobodies And Tj Went From Being The Best Bantamweight To The Best Cheater In The Sport 🤨🤔

Congratulations TJ Dillashaw .

Tj was fighting like he was the champion good job tj

haha Faber is probably super jealous right now.

Tj dillashaw's fighting style was so close to Cub swansons in this fight. He looked awesome, congratz to TJ , great fight.

Man, As soon as i heard TJ walking out to 'Cant stop' by RHCP, i Knew some shit was about go down.. and I'm a Barao fan!

Barao's got some stuff he needs to work on. I feel this was the best thing that could have happened to him. We learn little from victory but much from defeat.

The one night I can't watch UFC, this shit happens FML :(

Damn should have ordered the PPV

I hope there's a 'Fight Flashback' for this fight.

Dillahaw, Congrats to a good man and hard worker.

HOLY SHIT that was an awesome fight!!!

I will never underestimate an underdog like that again.

I really didn't think he could've taken Barao's belt. Amazing performance by TJ and great footwork by the new champ. He actually made Barao looked slow when it came to those exchanges. Now I really want to see Dominick Cruz come back and fight for the title.

From now on i am never writing any fighter off who steps into that cage.. Fuck.

Badly translated at the end. Renan Barao said that he is going to get back what is his! Great fight.

Also His(barao) shoulders were not shrugged up for protection of chin and extension of his punches, he had an opportunity to finish with a heel hook but let go for no apparent reason? Amount of Spin kicks were more than usual and at moments he usually would not attempt... Great show can't wait to see tj and barao 2

Cool guy I'm happy for him

cant wait for rematch

WOWWW that was a shocker

No one was thinkin he was going to win be but he did that's all u need

Fucking awesome job done by T J Dillashaw, he has got some skills and some balls for taking the fight to KO even though it was already in the bag. This guy has the potential to be a legend. Damn good job sir.

Upset championship fight I EVER SEEN!!!!!

Never thought I would see Barao get straight out skilled ~ :O :O :O

Iv never seen Renan so upset

Holy shit what a fight. TJ is insane.

Wow much respect he looked just like Dominick Cruz

Dam I didn't give tj anychance I gotta give it up to him.he looked dam good! Congrats man!

TO ALL THE BRAZILIAN FANS WATCHING THIS: -----> U MAD BRO???

by far the biggest "HOLY SHIT" card since silva v weidman 2

This was before USADA testing. Everyone was "Juiced to the Gills" as Mark Hunt likes to say.

Boy was that a massive upset. Hats off 2 TJ & everyone at Team Alpha Male. He not only beat Barao he literally kicked his ass

Wow amazing

The best performance in a title fight by a heavy underdog in UFC history
