With only one arm to defend, Sterling dropped bombs, forcing Dillashaw to turn and give up his back in order to survive the round.

During the second, Sterling put Dillashaw on the canvas with relative ease. The former champion worked his way out of the situation and back to his feet, revealing that his shoulder had dislocated once again. Sterling quickly secured another takedown and dropped bombs and brutal elbows on the ground, forcing the referee to step in and call for the stoppage in round two.
