As the title. Hendricks, Pettis, and Weidman will have challengers as long as they keep winning, Dillashaw is just getting started and Mighty Mouse's division is a work in progress. It's between Cain, Jones, Ronda and Aldo IMO, who is the most likely to run out of interesting fights?
After Werdum, Cain has Overeem, Barnett, Stipe, Browne if he can work his way back, and maybe Hunt - but several of these guys are getting up there in years and may fall off before getting a shot
After Gus, Jones has Cormier, AJ, Davis if he can work his way back, and after that it'll be rematch, superfight, or moving up to HW time if no one else comes up
After Davis, Ronda has Cat, Nunes, a McMann rematch, and Cyborg and Holm if they ever make it to the UFC - also maybe Murphy and Nakai in the latter category
After Mendes, Aldo has a Swanson rematch, McGregor if the hype and winning keep up, maybe BJ, but more guys should rise to become threats at FW since it's not such a shallow division like the above 3
Who is the most likely to end up fighting a steady stream of Dan Hardy-style overmatched 'challengers' in a few years if they keep winning?
