Taking any 3 fighters and combining their skills/attributes to create your base and style of fighting, who would they be?
Me personally I'd model myself after Conor McGregor, Nick Diaz and Urijah Faber.
The brash personality and confidence of McGregor as well as his training ethics, Nick Diaz with his solid striking and jiu jitsu, I also feel that I'm not much of a power puncher so I'd go for volume and speed. Urijah's strong wrestling and well rounded game and experience.

Tough question, too many toys to choose from, but today? I'd say
Mighty Mouse - speed and conditioning overall game
The Spider- matrix reflexes pin point accuracy w/striking
Tank Abbot - pure power
Put em all together and that's one Bad A$$ Muthafuka!
Lots of other lethal combinations, could probably make 10 alternate combos rather easily

Jose Aldo, Carlos Condit & Matt Brown
Aldo for striking fundamentals & takedown defense.
Matt Browns offensive clinch & outright toughness.
Condit for creativity, both striking & grappling, great guard work & gas tank.
Interestingly all 3 of the fighters I chose are pretty long & rangy, something I hadn't even thought about.

Heck, just give me Condits everything and Koschecks wrestling. Nobody would stand a chance.
Or Hector Lombards everything with Clay Guidas gas tank.
