Eight months ago, the lightweight division seemed to be overflowing with top contenders ready for a shot at the title.
Now that UFC on Versus 5 over, the title picture looks a little more clearer with two exciting crossovers from the WEC now looking for a shot at the belt.
Last night, Donald Cerrone made a huge impression on the lightweight division, knocking out rising prospect Charles Oliveira three minutes into the first round. Former WEC champion Ben Henderson also looked great, ending Jim Miller’s seven fight win streak.
As all eyes now turn to Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard’s rematch in October as the excitement only continues in the stacked lightweight division.
Here’s how the last night’s winners stack up against the top 10 lightweights in the UFC.
