Plenty is on the line in the lightweight division on Saturday. Lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov (26-0 MMA, 10-0 UFC) takes on former two-division champ Conor McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) in the UFC 229 main event. McGregor used to rule the roost at 155 pounds, but now that’s Nurmagomedov’s home spot – and McGregor wants it back. A McGregor win would mean another changing of the guard at the top of the 155-pound division.
