Wish we could get more of a breakdown of the rest of the card.
For me, you cannot deny Barao's talent, but he seems to have hit a wall. It may be that Dillashaw is just a different beast. Barao's had some issue with his cuts in the past while Dillashaw makes the weight easily. TJ's striking has gotten dramatically better since his time on TUF and Barao has had a lot of issues; TJ works angles much like a younger Dominick Cruz, and trains at Team Alpha Male so his wrestling and BJJ is pretty great. Still, do you want to bet 3-1 on a favorite who's challenger was SO good for SO long? Dillashaw looked SO good vs Barao and Soto... I think I'd like to sit back and watch it. I think a better prop would be Fight Goes to a Decision +110. Looking at Dillashaw Wins by unanimous decision +335, or split/majority decision +634.NFL 17: 45-47-2 // 48.91% // -10.12
MMA: 247-332-2 // 42.66% // -6.04
MLB 17: 151-140-8 // 51.89% // +5.65 ROR // +42.13
NCAAF 17: 63-49-2 // 56.25% // +6.80

One of my 2018 resolutions: no more action gambling.
