1. Nate Diaz

If Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor don't fight a third time and settle their score inside the Octagon, it might go down as a bigger travesty than fans never getting the chance to see Fedor Emelianenko fight in the UFC.

Their first two fights were absolutely exceptional, with both men bringing the best out of each other and keeping the fans on the edge of their seats throughout. While we've got a good idea of how McGregor has improved since their fight, fans haven't seen Diaz step inside a cage since so there's a mystery behind how good he'll actually be if they fought again.

Every great fighter needs an even greater rival and McGregor certainly found an exceptional foil to his outstanding career in Diaz.
