I bet that one doesn't go to a decision!

your probably right, I bet it will be a draw then there will have to be a rematch!

Good luck to Edgar. I thought he deserved the lw belt. He's going to be a beast at welterweight.

Edgar saw how everyone didn't think he was top 10 of all time except for anik because Edgar fought 2 weight classes above his supposed ideal fighting weight. Edgar's now going to take one step further. 

February 2013 if there's no apocalypse.

Edgar's fighting Nick Diaz. That is my prediction.

Dude if he comes out and makes an announcement like this, he must be moving down.  Or else he would just be getting everyone's hopes up for nothing.  I've never rooted for Edgar but if he fights Aldo I'll be behind him 100%

@fresno Agreed 100%. I just wonder who Frankie will have to fight at 145 first to get the title shot? I think he'll destroy whoever it is but I'm curious.

It's most likely going to be Frankie vs Mendes, if not then like @soccerkick said KZ.  KZ and Mendes are two of my absolute favorite fighters, and I'll be worried for them if Frankie is put in front of them.  I think Jung would honestly be the tougher fight just because he's so ******* unpredictable, and very crafty.

I think Mendes makes sense, I think Korean Zombie should get someone else.
