Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - When Carlos Condit walks into the UFC Octagon for the first time on Wednesday night, he'll be a little lighter than usual. No, he's not dropping to the lightweight division for his match against Martin Kampmann, but there won't be those extra couple of pounds he's carried since March 24, 2007, the night he won the vacant WEC welterweight title belt.

Frank Curreri, WEC - It's not easy being perfect, but Joseph Benavidez doesn't want to stop now. 10-0 will be there for the taking on Sunday. The unbeaten 23-year-old will stand on the biggest stage of his career, in a nationally televised contest (VERSUS 9pm ET / 6pm PT), with a long-awaited opportunity to shine. All he needs to do to stay flawless and on the path to stardom is topple an MMA pioneer.

Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - It was supposed to be a vacation for the kid from Aarhus, Denmark. Little did Martin Kampmann know that his first trip to Las Vegas in the summer of 2006 would eventually turn into a permanent one. Funny what an addiction to the fight game can do to you.
