The 5 Greatest Light
Heavyweights in UFC History
Article By: RJ Gardner
Once considered the premier division in all of MMA, the UFC’s light
heavyweight division has lost some luster as of late. Between an aging tal-
ent pool and the indefinite suspension of long time champion, Jon Jones,
the division isn’t nearly as strong as it once was. But absent of its depth and
age issue, the UFC light heavyweight division is still a fan favorite.
In honor of newly crowned champion, Daniel Cormier’s upcoming first title
defense at UFC 192 in Houston on Saturday, Oct. 3, 2015, let’s take
some time to celebrate the division the put the UFC on the map. The divi-
sion that turned the struggling enterprise of theUFC into the billion dollar
goliath it is today. These are the five greatest light heavyweights in UFC
history.
