Bar a few exceptions, combat sports has always been a young man's game. It's not rare to see legends take on rising stars and it always brings up so many questions.

While it might not be the main event of UFC 234, both men have the creative and pin-point accurate striking skills to upstage the title fight and be the water cooler chat on Monday morning.
