UFC on FOX 23: Donald Cerrone vs Jorge Masvidal full fight preview 'By the Numbers' (Video)

Top-ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight contenders Donald Cerrone (No. 5) and Jorge Masvidal (No. 12) in the co-main event of UFC on FOX 23, which takes place inside Pepsi Arena in Denver, Colo., on Jan 28, 2017.

Cerrone has torn up the 170-pound division since coming up short in a lightweight title fight back in Dec. 2015, winning four fights -- and three "Performance of the Night" bonuses -- via submission and/or (technical) knockout.

Masvidal, meanwhile, has won back-to-back bouts and is looking to use "Cowboy" as a means to crack into the division's Top 10. Let's take a look at all the stats and numbers that went into UFC on FOX 23’s entertaining co-main event with this "By the Numbers" video preview above.
