"There were multiple occasions where TJ got a little bit too aggressive. He went overboard in training. He's kneeing you while we're boxing, he's throwing elbows while we're doing jiu-jitsu and that instance that's out in the public is definitely true." "I shot in on TJ and I was on all fours, he was sprawled out and he kneed me on top of the head. That was before the Ultimate Fighter. I was kind of jarred up. Everyone was watching and I took like 30 seconds off, but I kept going. I finished practice, but after that practice, I was concussed. It was my first concussion and it just kept happening from there."https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/923576799317118977 Holdsworth admitted that cheap shot was 'probably one of the worst ones' and that it was the reason why he hasn't fought for so long. He also claimed to have lost respect for Dillashaw after hearing he was taking a 'special supplement' in the build-up to his title win against Renan Barao.
"There was another instance leading up to the Chico (Camus) fight when he was getting ready for Barao and I come to hear that he's on some special supplement. I just lost respect for the guy. There's no hard feelings, it's whatever it is, but he's a cheater."Fairly damning stuff from the Team Alpha Male coach. It will be interesting to see how Dillashaw responds to this ahead of his title fight against Garbrandt at UFC 217 this weekend.
