When the UFC decided to introduce the 125-pound weight class, they decided to do it in style: with a four man tournament.
They announced the participants would be two former bantamweight contenders, Demetrious Johnson and Joseph Benavidez, and two UFC newcomers, Yasuhiro Urushitani and Ian McCall. Johnson would fight McCall and Benavidez would fight Urushitani.
Let’s take a look at a breakdown of the tournament thus far.
