Fight Vault: Top 5 rematches includes Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz, but is it No. 1?

(Editor’s note: This story first published April 6, 2019.)

Welcome to Dan Tom’s “Fight Vault,” where MMA Junkie’s resident fight analyst delves into the archives to select his top five.

Today we look at the top five rematches of all time in anticipation of the UFC 241 rematch between heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier and Stipe Miocic.

The list includes some classics, including Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz at UFC 202, Ronda Rousey vs. Miesha Tate at UFC 168 and a Strikeforce gem from 2009 between Gilbert Melendez and Josh Thomson. But do any of those take the No. 1 spot on the list?

Watch the countdown in the video above.
