A non-title fight ever been above a title fight?

It seems that Connor v Nate is sticking the main ahead of Holm v Tate for the World title.

Has this ever happened before for a legit World Champ strap? (Not counting Bellator, Strikeforce, One, etc as they're not really world titles). Did it happen in Pride?

Well, McGregor vs. Mendes wasn't REALLY a title fight, and it was above Lawler vs. MacDonald.
