The big talking point at UFC Vegas 32 was the return of TJ Dillashaw. The former UFC champion was back after serving a ban for drugs related offences but had a tough opponent in the main event.

Dillashaw was up against Cory Sandhagen, and The Sandman knew that a win over the returning star could have earned him a title shot.

The two bantamweights put on quite a show in the five rounds and there was some controversy in the decision too.
