Donald Cerrone
Record: 17-3 (1 No Contest) overall, 4-0 in the UFC
Key Wins: Dennis Siver (UFC 137), Charles Oliveira (UFC on Versus 5), Danny Castillo (WEC 34)
Key Losses: Ben Henderson (Twice: WEC 48, WEC 43)
How he got here: Cerrone, a former bull-rider, transitioned to mixed martial arts (MMA) and got off to a very hot start. He was undefeated in his first 10 fights, working all the way up to a WEC title fight with then-champion Jamie Varner.
Cerrone would come up short via close split technical decision. Despite the setback, the Greg Jackson-trained fighter would go on to battle Ben Henderson for the interim title when Varner became injured. He would lose another close decision in what was deemed the 2009 "Fight of the Year." After again bouncing back, "Cowboy" would try (and fail) for a third time at WEC gold in a rematch with Henderson, but would at least get redemption against Varner in his next fight, soundly defeating the former champ via unanimous decision.
Nate Diaz
Record: 14-7 overall, 9-5 in the UFC
Key Wins: Melvin Guillard (UFC Fight Night 25), Takanori Gomi (UFC 135), Marcus Davis (UFC 118)
Key Losses: Rory MacDonald (UFC 129), Gray Maynard (UFC Fight Night 20),
How he got here: Diaz didn't take the easy road. He made his MMA debut in the WEC and by his seventh professional fight, he was fighting for the promotion's lightweight title against Hermes Franca at the Brazilian's peak, losing via submission in the second round.
