    I hope Gray wins, so Frankie will go down to 145 and fight Aldo. If anyone can beat Aldo there, it's Edgar.

    no chance of a superfight between those divisions. the lightweight division is far too stacked for dana to take the champion out of action for that fight. literally 5 or more guys could challenge for the belt at any given time. IMO

    Way more excited about the rest of the card before the headliner. At this point I could care less who wins between Edgar/Maynard, I just want a decisive victory so we can move on.

    Best card of the year IMO. Florian - Aldo could be even more epic than Edgar - Maynard and my moneys on kenflo to surprise a few who are writing him off against Aldo. Even if he doesn't win I expect it to be a close fight and potential fight of the night.



    Edgar only has to avoid Maynards power to outclass and outwork him, but as we all seen before, Maynard is quality and can put Edgar in seriously trouble at any moment. again another fight of the night contender.

    Briann Stann wont win only because he thinks going to get a knock out. Doesnt he know that the only way to beat Chael Sonnen is via triangle choke? Silly Brian Stann...
