Tony Ferguson faces undefeated challenger Khabib Nurmagomedov April 7 at UFC 223, but El Cucuy's road to this mega fight was anything but easy. 

The Ultimate Fighter winner carried an eight-fight winning streak into a high-profile showdown vs. former lightweight champ Rafael dos Anjos, putting his title aspirations and his bonkers run on the line. 

In a Fight of the Night effort, both men showcased exactly why they belonged at the top of the 155-pound mountain, but it was Ferguson who edged it out on the judges' scorecards. 

From there, Ferguson would defeat Kevin Lee at UFC 216 via submission to land where he is now, staring an undefeated monster in Nurmagomedov down as his next challenge.
