Benson Henderson brought his storied MMA career to a close at Bellator 292 when he retired from MMA following a title-fight loss to Usman Nurmagomedov.

Henderson (30-12 MMA, 7-7 BMMA) was quickly bounced from the Bellator lightweight grand prix when he suffered a first-round submission loss to undefeated champion and rising star Nurmagomedov in the headlining bout at SAP Center in San Jose, Calif.

Although “Smooth” failed to capture Bellator gold on three separate occasions, the majority of his best work came prior to joining the organization. Henderson is a former UFC and WEC titleholder at 155 pounds, owning victories over notables such as Frankie Edgar, Nate Diaz, Donald Cerrone, Josh Thomson, Jorge Masvidal and more.

With his decision to hang up the gloves to put focus on his wife Maria’s blossoming career, Henderson’s career is now being put into perspective as his legacy gets put up with the best lightweights to ever do it.

Where does Henderson rank among the top all-time in his weight class?
