I would listen to Dillashaw breakdown fights and talk about matchups all day. Has one of the best brains for the sport and was one of the best to do it.

[@thecasualsmma]

He's the best

[@jaymallo7859]

I agree. I’ve always been a huge fan of TJ.. to this day that title winning performance against Barao is one of my favorites. TJ needs his own weekly podcast for sure.

[@johngallagher9786]

Tj style was a matter of beauty. Just the best

[@Keithersutherland]

Yeah why doesn't he do commentary

[@happycamel39]

when i saw your guys insta story saying that you had a champ on the podcast, i was like “ it’s dillashaw right? theres no way” and i went on with my day. i’m very happy that i got it right! EDIT: I forgot that TJ also studied at my university, where i'm typing this lol

It’s nice to hear DJ’s side of things. The rivalry with Garbrandt was the best one ever. We got to see it manifest and then witness it close up on TUF. All the way to the actual fight. Appreciate all the stories told. Appreciate y’all for allowing him to do that.

This was such an awesome podcast. I hate how TJ Dillashaw was disregarded by the mma community despite other fighters being embraced with the same PED history. Great to see he's managed to translate his success into other avenues!

[@Mr-E.]

For some people it was what he did to Chris Holdsworth in training (with the intentional knee to his head that ended his career in fighting). I like TJ's fight analysis though, no problems with him here.

[@Kpt.Krunch]

In his prime he was the best fighter on the planet. If Jones stays on list of the GOATs TJ gotta be up there. No question.

[@timm285]

@@Mr-E.Chris didn’t even elucidate that situation. They Chris directly on a podcast and Chris didn’t say a word about it

[@hudsonvalleystrongdads3090]

I like seeing actual fighters just being honest and talking about different points in their fight career. TJ is very well spoken and taken the details of fighting very well.

[@CrashingCloud]

Damn this was such a good insight to TJ. Always kinda disliked him cuz I was the type to value loyalty, but hearing his story just made me feel stupid. Ill cop an energy drink for you TJ!

[@Nentraa]

This Podcast got the best out of TJ. And I watched every TJ video love from Australia lads.

Thanks for bringing TJ in. Great vibes, great questions and some humour without it going out of hand. TJ is one of my all time favs and one of the greatest technical minds in the sport.

[@ziggybender9125]

Hey TJ if you read this I'm someone who's been diligently stretching almost every day for about 5 years now to fix a life long shoulder imbalance issue that hindered me, I've learned a lot and I'm willing to share. For starters it's important to understand your body is way out of balance in terms of joint symmetry and everything is connected and affects how the joints line up. Right now you are having people cut you open and try to fix your shoulder in a position it's not meant to be in in the first place. Start with learning lotus pose on the ground and you will feel the adjustments that happen in your ankles and knees, the key is to start with half lotus and just put yourself into a position of slight discomfort and then hold it long enough till you feel the muscle release its tension and the stretching feeling goes away. Shoulder adjustments are quite complicated and take a very long time but in the meantime you'll get a kick out of the other parts of your body coming back into good alignment and it's all necessary for the eventual shoulder adjustments.

[@jonathanrenteria5881]

What MMA has been missing! Thank you Casuals!!

[@thecasualsmma]

More to come!

[@ProperCh]

TJs shoulder situation is so crazy bro... and now Ive really heard from him I do feel sorry for what happened to him but at the same time like he said it paid the bills for him and brought him to a level he otherwise wouldnt have reached. Amazing guest for the pod!

Hello

[@solblaze77]

As a wrestler in highschool, I had the pleasure of being at a clinic run by TJ Dillashaw and even got to grapple a bit with him. Very technical guy and one of the best to ever do it in my opinion.

[@marcosjz5oy6q]

Just a great podcast. Come on. I started watching like a normal the casuals podcast, but ended almost crying. ...ok, i cried. Respect to TJ, just a straight up warrior.

[@thecasualsmma]

Welcome to the club!

[@Cool-Danny]

TJ Dillashaw's coach Justin Bucholz gave him solid advice; before every fight TJ would get nervous before walking out, but Bucholz told him "People would pay millions to walk out in front of millions and perform, soak this energy up." Before that fight, TJ would have tunnel vision, wouldn't pay attention to the crowd, just focus on opponent across the cage, and not worry about anything else. Bucholz said it right before TJ walked out. TJ said he performed so well in that fight, and tricked himself every fight after that to have fun. Enjoying the fear rather than the fear take over you and get tunnel vision. That's what switched his career completely.
