Probably depends on what kind of running, what kind of lifting. Don't you train MMA too?

With the first plan I would lift first.

Intensity of the running? Duration? Rep ranges? Intensity of the lifting? Volume of lifting? What is the split of the weight training days?

Without knowing more, I'd go with the 2nd version. A day lifting, a day running. Also mix up the running - Fast steady state, HIIT, slow steady state etc....

Second usually, but you need to give your legs time to rest too.

Yeah, it's going to be hard to tell without more details.
