Aljamain Sterling: Punching 'Cheat' T.J. Dillashaw Was Best Career Moment

Aljamain Sterling said his top career moment was punching T.J. Dillashaw during his 2022 bantamweight title-defense TKO, citing Dillashaw's prior drug-testing failures.In remarks to Home of Fight, Sterling called T.J. Dillashaw a "lying cheat" and referenced the UFC veteran's 2019 failed drug test and two-year suspension. He also noted Cody Garbrandt had long accused Dillashaw of PED use.Background includes Dillashaw's 17-5 record, three bantamweight title defenses across two reigns, and a 2021 split-decision win over Cory Sandhagen that set up his bout with Sterling. He retired after losing to Sterling and remains regarded among top bantamweights, with a legacy affected by PED violations.
