Donald Cerrone's (30-7, 1 NC) rise as a welterweight contender will be put to the test at UFC 202, where he'll square off against Rick Story (19-8).
Cerrone finished 2015 with a disappointing result against then-lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos. Cowboy jumped right back into the cage in early 2016 by moving to 170 pounds against Alex Oliveira. A victory in Pittsburgh gave him a shot against Patrick Cote.
Now with back-to-back wins, Cerrone has put himself into the fray at 170.
Story has silently put together an impressive three-fight win streak. It is silent because of a nearly two-year absence between victories against Gunnar Nelson (October 2014) and Tarec Saffiedine (May 2016).
This is a meaningful welterweight clash with two known commodities. The winner will enter serious contention at welterweight as the new Tyron Woodley era begins.
Who has the edge between Cerrone and Story? What will the result of UFC 202 be?
Let's take a look at the head-to-toe breakdown between these two veteran UFC fighters.
