    After T.J. Dillashaw scored a tremendous victory over John Lineker at Friday night’s UFC 207, he threw a little shade in UFC president Dana White’s direction.
    The former UFC bantamweight champion said if he didn’t get a title shot, it would prove the game was “rigged.”
    Then, in the very next fight at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena, Cody Garbrandt stunned Dominick Cruz to win the bantamweight belt, which very much turned the idea of who’s next an open debate.

    Either way, the fight had a story. Dillashaw and Cruz would be a rematch of one of 2016's best fights, where Cruz captured the title for a second time winning a close decision. Garbrandt vs. Dillashaw was a battl

    Nunes successfully made her first title defense Friday night in the main event of the final UFC card of 2016, stopping Rousey in brutal fashion in the opening seconds of round one.
