Would be a shame if Vera fought Yan and got absolutely humbled... Wouldn't like to see that at all...

Chito did good by making him respect the front kick to the body then brought it up in the 3rd. Wonder why he waited damn near 15 mins to bring it up tho.

Frankie and his team need to start having that conversation. He’s a legend. Not happy to see this happening to him, especially after the Sandhagen fight too.

Edgar needs to retire. Love him, but needs to get out before it gets bad. He'd be a great coach. 

Also, the UFC needs to do better with these Legends of the sport. Frankie should be fighting Dominick Cruz type fighters at this stage, not 28 year old beast.

What an incredible Front Kick Finish from Marlon Vera... Nearly took Frankie Edgar's head clean off... Close fight, Edgar did well, especially Round 1 and through half of Round 2... However, Edgar gassed towards the middle of Round 2 when he went for and failed on a takedown and Marlin Vera took over... 🤔💯🤑🧐👊🥊👏👍

Just noticed Vera looks like Masvidal but with a streched face and a fake tan, now can't unsee it

@Peace- For the middle finger at the end of round 2. Frankie is like our dad out there. Regardless of if you're rooting against Frankie, his losses still hurt. Dude has been nothing but class during his career.
