A look at the Saturday, July 25th UFC on FOX 16 card in Chicago, IL, where T.J. Dillashaw rematches Renan Barao for the UFC bantamweight championship.
A little over 1 year ago, T.J. Dillashaw captured the UFC bantamweight strap by upsetting Renan Barao with a fully fledged beatdown and a 5th round TKO. Dillashaw vs. Barao 2 was set up for UFC 177 before Barao's weight-cutting problem forced a last-minute cancellation. T.J. defended the belt against Joe Soto, and a rematch vs. Barao was scheduled for UFC 186 after the Brazilian beat Mitch Gagnon. Unfortunately, Dillashaw got hurt, but instead of this fight headlining a PPV, it's the main event of UFC on FOX 16 in Chicago. It's the first title fight to air on FOX since Demetrious Johnson stopped Joseph Benavidez in December 2013.
The rest of the main card features Jessica Eye and Miesha Tate in a women's bantamweight #1 contender's bout, Edson Barboza against Paul Felder at lightweight, and Japanese legend Takanori Gomi against Joe Lauzon in what should be a great match-up.
