Former Strikeforce champion,Tarec Saffiedine looks to leave his mark in his UFC debut as he takes on Hyun Gyu Lim at UFC Fight Night.

It's the oldest matchup in combat sports, and always one of the most exciting, as young gun Abel Trujillo meets seasoned veteran Jamie Varner in an attempt to see whether Trujillo is ready for prime time or if Varner is on his way to the top ten once again.

The talent-rich welterweight division will take center stage at UFC 171. A new 170-pound champion will be crowned when Johny 'Bigg Rigg' Hendricks battles 'Ruthless' Robbie Lawler for the vacant title.

In November of 2011, Dan Henderson and Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua met at UFC 139. After five of the greatest rounds ever seen in the Octagon, Henderson's hand was raised, but now, a little over two years later, these mixed martial arts superstars will meet again.

Two of the welterweight division's most exciting members, Matt Brown and Erick Silva, hope to continue their charge. Silva has ended his four wins in the first round. Brown has had six consecutive wins and his next stop may be a shot at the world title.

UFC bantamweight champ Renan Barao will put his winning streak and crown on the line against offensive machine T.J. Dillashaw.
