5. Tony Ferguson vs. Abel Trujillo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ayM6B2N4hk Weight Class: Lightweight Opening up the PPV portion of the card is Ultimate Fighter 13 winner Tony 'El Cucuy' Ferguson (16-3), currently riding a three-fight win streak. Ferguson has two performance bonuses in his UFC career, and holds wins over the likes of the recently retired Yves Edwards, and Danny Castillo. Abel Trujillo (125 (1)) is coming off a two-fight win streak of his own following a no contest against Roger Bowling due to an illegal knee on Trujillo's part. Since that NC he came back to beat Bowling in the rematch, then take out Jamie Varner in a Fight of the Night that also gave Trujillo the Knockout of the Night. That was back in February, however. Since then, Trujillo has been linked with and pulled from fights thanks to injuries to himself, opponents, and the cancellation of UFC 176. Ferguson, meanwhile, has been active, fighting twice while Trujillo has sat. That said, Trujillo hasn't been gone that long - under a year - and may surprise Ferguson. Trujillo via TKO in the second or third.
