@Soccerkick Nope. This fight will be great. Especially the part where the Smooth one walks home with a belt :D

I have Edgar picked now, but am likely to change this 4-5 times before the fight takes place!! I've picked against Frankie in every title fight he's had and I'm 0-4!!!

@Soccer Yeah, but none of them have been against Ben Henderson. Lol. I think it's fairly nice that we can all finally have a title fight that doesn't get everyone riled up. I mean, it's hard not to like either of these guys, and it is an all around exciting fight. No matter who takes the belt home, we all win.

Bendo is tough, damn tough. But, I'd like to see Franky retain his title. Really have no idea how this goes down though.

I don't know if I can pick against Edgar again either, last 4 times he fought I thought he would lose and he proved me wrong.

I guess Frankie can win it boxing @wolfmanhowl but, I honestly don't know if BHendo can catch him, gnp, or what... I really don't know who will be the better fighter. Pretty excited for this one though.

Hendersons kryptonite = Guy who has good enough wrestling to keep it on the feet - good striking.

Edgar has both of those.

Henderson submits Frankie here for the belt!

It's hard to pick against Edgar but Bendo is much more dangerous than Maynard. He has a big chance.

Prediction: wrong Edgar   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

I can't wait for this fight I have already changed my mind once, and probably will a couple more times. I can almost guarantee that this will be fight of the year. But I think I have to stick with Edgar on this one the kid just has to much heart, but then again Bendo is is a ******* beast, and is more well rounded than Maynard so I guess we will all just have to wait and see. This is my most anticipated fight of the year so far at least until Sonnen/Silva 2, and who ever gets to fight GSP.

Edgar somehow always finds a way to win. He has amazing footwork and wrestling and knows exactly how to utilize it.

If Ben hurts Edgar the way he was hurt against Maynard, Ben WILL finish it. That said, I still think it'll go to decision.

Bendo will not finish Edgar. Neither will anyone else though. I realize Bendo is the popular pick here but remember who the champion is and also who has beaten the better fighters.
