TJ Dillashaw Potentially Out For Six Months After Cory Sandhagen Fight
It seems that the UFC fans will have to wait for a while to see TJ Dillashaw get into the octagon after overwhelming Cory Sandhagen on his return at UFC Vegas 32. The former two-time bantamweight champion is facing medical suspension by Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) for six months which means that he will get his UFC fight in early 2022.
