I'm not even considering it. It doesn't make sense to me. How is this guy even still in the UFC? He's lost five of his last six fights, and I'm fighting for titles - I'm out of his league.
Dillashaw and Garbrandt have met twice before. The first fight between these athletes happened in November 2017 at the UFC 217 tournament. In that encounter, T.J. won by TKO in the second round.
The second time Dillashaw and Garbrandt fought in the octagon was in August 2018 at UFC 227. That fight ended in T.J.'s favor by a first-round knockout. He has 17 wins and five losses under his belt.
