Urijah Faber has it all.

From his incredible talent as a mixed martial artist to his budding writing career to his envy-inducing physique (come on, I’m just saying what we have all thought at one point or another), Faber is missing nothing in his life.

Well, maybe he is missing one thing.

One really, really important thing, to be exact.

Faber, for all his talent and popularity, has never held the UFC championship belt around his waist, a streak he hopes to break at UFC 149 when he squares off against Brazilian phenom Renan Barao. 

In honor of Faber and other fighters like him who, despite massive popularity, have never had their share of the UFC belt, I present to you this slideshow.

Mark Hunt
