Wow.
So which is it? Do people only read the title or is sarcasm just impossible to convey through the written word? Anyway, allow me to clear the air a bit.
1. I will never view that fight as a loss for Edgar.
2. Edgar is forever the fighter who secured my interest in this sport and I owe him immensely for my recent successes in life.
3. I would never have made the post if I didn't feel *with all my heart* that getting cut would be the best thing for Edgar at this point. (I will make a thread to elaborate)
Having said these things, here are my votes:
Upvoted:
Gramz
Wolf (just because I like your zeal, although that Chandler fight...)
MikeLovesTacos (for giving Edgar a fair shake)
dielegende23 (for giving me the benefit of the doubt despite missing the sarcasm)
Gregory (for surprising us, and because I agree)
onepunch (for daring to say it, and because I agree)
Downvoted:
edu94
CthulhuJones (3rd reply)
Unpunished15 (for that weird Anne Frank stuff)
ProdigyKid14
A perpetual goal of mine has been to get Frankie Edgar--who has always been my favorite fighter and the ultimate underdog--more props. With this thread, I finally succeeded. The funny thing is, if my bitter sarcasm had shone through, I probably would have failed.
Anyway, thanks for participating in one of my most successful threads ever--and you're welcome for the upvotes (not talking about the ones I gave out).

I can sort of see it now, especially since a lot of you didn't know of my admiration for Edgar. And maybe a lot of posters were expecting an (actual) Edgar-hater to rear their head. But this post should have been the giveaway:
"We should also fire those two judges that scored it 49-46. They must clearly be blind if they thought Edgar deserved a round."

I understand that we don't all have time to read every post in a thread, so I'm only calling out the 15 people who did read it--but not closely enough--and downvoted me. (I'm very sensitive about getting downvotes)

But that's only because he could never make 125.

I thought Aldo clearly won the fight, it reaaaaaally wasn't close. Joe Rogan rides Edgar's **** WAY TOO HARD, his bias in that fight was remarkable. How he could give 3 and 5 to Edgar I do not ******* know, Aldo was dominant.
