When talking about a division that has a new life, look no further than the Men's Bantamweight division. New names include Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar while champion Henry Cejudo is expected to return by the first quarter of 2020.

Aljamain Sterling, Petr Yan, Urijah Faber, Marlon Moraes and more are all names that could cause a big impact and Cody Garbrandt returns in early 2020 as well. The competition at Bantamweight is greater than it ever has been before and we couldn't be more excited about it!


#1. Lightweight

Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Tony Ferguson, fingers crossed, will take place on April 18th, 2020. We hope for the best and that fifth time is a charm and there's hardly any need to justify why 155 will remain the most exciting division in the UFC.

For one, it's by far the most stacked and every one of the top 15 could reach new heights on any given day. It's a shark tank of a division and Conor McGregor will look to get right back into the mix as well.

Justin Gaethje is waiting it out for a title shot and his direction should be clear after April 18th. We can hardly wait and Lightweight is going to deliver the most high-level match-ups in the UFC today.
