Do you have head problems? Or do you want to stand out that way?

Can the veteran Edgar pull off a hard fought upset win similar to his win against Pedro Munhoz last year?
Can Frankie use his wrestling to win this fight by decision? I know Edgar is chinny as of late as evidenced by Korean Zombie knocking him out. How much of that was due to Frankie coming in as a last minute replacement for Ortega?
FanDuel has Frankie Edgar by decision at +550. Maybe worth a shot?

I understand the political tension between Russia and Ukraine and so your dislike for Russian fighters makes perfect sense in that context but think about it this way.... What have those specific Russian fighters ever done against you personally? Even if they have said pro Russian government things (might or might not have, I haven't looked into it as I try to keep politics out of my MMA opinions) given how oppressive Putin has been with his critics, they would probably sing his praises for their and their family's own safety rather than risk standing up to him. A nation and it's government are not one and the same.

@Bazik 3 bums attacked you, you forget Tieoken. When looking for the problem in the chat, find the common denominator ^^^^^^^^^ (you):) Also Nothing says dont pay attention to my opinion then hating on Russian Fighters because they invaded your country and did it easily, accusing them of taking bribes and writing insults like they are written in green crayon. Maybe dont hate of fighters because of what country they came from? i shouldnt even have to explain this

I agree with you in that I think Overeem is the more well rounded fighter and I've also picked him to win. One thing I still don't understand is why you think there's the risk that the fight could be fixed. The UFC aren't exactly the most honorable of organisations, especially when it comes to the fighters contracts but I think a fix is just too implausible at that level. Lower down in the regional MMA scene I've heard stories of fixed fights where fighters have got someone to bet on their opponents and then throw the fights or just taken bribes to make ends meet but I just can't see somthing like that happening at UFC level if nothing else because the UFC would have spend a fortune to keep everyone quiet and the UFC don't like spending more than they need to. It just doesn't make any business sense.
