On Saturday, the UFC brings a pay-per-view quality card to network television and Chicago. In the main event, TJ Dillashaw defends his bantamweight world title against the man he took it from, Renan Barao.
In the co-main event, former world champ Miesha Tate battles contender Jessica Eye to determine who deserves to fight for the title next. All-time performance bonus leader Joe Lauzon will also take on former world champion Takanori Gomi to start off the main card.
All those fighters and the many excellent undercard ones first had to make weight Friday afternoon in the home of the Bulls and Blackhawks, however. They did, even former champion Renan Barao, who has struggled in the past.
