TJ Dillashaw's corner popped his shoulder back into place! Wild! In an exclusive interview with James Lynch of Sportskeeda MMA, Vanessa Demopoulos spoke out against combat sports fans who continue to denigrate Sterling's achievements: "Poor Aljamain who's like sitting here winning these fights and taking all the heat from the fans in the aftermath where they're trying to like discredit him for being a champion. Dude, like the man's putting in work, he's winning these fights fairly dominantly." Demopolous further added that it was imprudent on Dillashaw's part to fight with an injured shoulder: "If you [Dillashaw] knew back in April that you had an injury and you're fighting for a title in October...that is so far out. You could have gotten a whole surgery and rehabbed for six whole weeks and then continued on to an entire fight camp by the time October came around. It was extraordinarily irresponsible on T.J's part to even allow that to be an excuse." Even UFC President Dana White has condemned Dillashaw for keeping the organization in the dark about the severe shoulder injury. Watch our exclusive interview with Vanessa Demopoulos below:
