Despite coming from a wrestling background, Dillashaw and Cejudo have become effective strikers during their time in the UFC.

This was the fifth time in UFC history that champions in different divisions fought for the same title, following UFC 94, UFC 205, UFC 226 and UFC 232. [26] Dwight Grant was soon announced as his replacement, but it was later reported that he was unable to be cleared to fight due to an "eye issue". On the other hand, he has proven himself to be rather durable, as he has never been knocked down due to head strikes. WOW!!!!! Like most fighters, the majority (62 percent) of Cejudo's landed significant strikes come at distance -- that is, standing and not in the clinch. pic.twitter.com/AVYbKYuiz6.
