Completely agree. The first fight with Henderson wasn't even close in my opinion so there was no controversy that should've lead to this rematch. Frankie just needs to drop to 145, hopefully that's his future after this fight with Bendo.

There's just way to many fights to make at 155.

Agreed and also I want to see Pettis vs Benson, because Pettis was the only one to really give Benson some trouble. Not to mention I think it was a really close fight to call. Than again with the injury bug hurting the UFC it would have been a matter of time before the UFC just give it to Frankie anyways.

Don't get me wrong I do not hate Frankie, I just think that he should earn his way back to the title. Than again out of all the lightweights in the UFC, sadly most casual fans know who Frankie is, and that is the truth.

Hoping for Pettis-Benson on the last Fox show in December, but it likely won't happen. Nate Diaz will probably get the next shot at Henderson which will be a great fight as well.

And idk, i'm torn about Edgar. after the bitch fit he threw after UFC 144 when Henderson clearly beat him 4 out of 5 rounds in their fight it kind of changed my opinion about him.

Rousimar Palhares is injured and off ths card, which sucks because i thought his fight with Okami was a brilliant matchup. Yushin now fights Buddy Roberts. Chris Camozzi was injured as well. Jared Hamman vs. Michael Kuiper gets bumped up to the main card. I still like this card a ton, Donald Cerrone-Melving Guilard is going to be an awesome fight. And of course, my man Benson is going to KO Edgar's ass.

This show is in two weeks, can't wait.

Seriously hoping Bendo KO's Edgar here and shuts him up. Guillard/Cerrone is going to be an awesome back and forth fight. Always enjoy seeing Okami and Jake Shields fight as well.

I shudder at the thought of Frankie Edgar winning this match. Sick and tired of him. Think he's one of the most boring fighters on the UFC roster. Not to mention the fact that all he ever seems to do is rematch people these days.

Edgar getting a rematch sets a bad precedent to me. What if Edgar wins by decision (since he lacks ability to finish)? Does Bendo get a rematch? If not, why not?

Everything Edgar does well, Bendo does ten times better.

I don't see any way Frankie wins this fight, even more so with the high altitude in Colorado. Gonna slow these guys down a lot and it won't be as fast paced as ppl think. Bendo could cruise control to a win here though, just like last time. Not like he actually had to work hard to beat that ass.

Guillard missed weight by 2lbs, and "isn't going to try and make weight" according to Helwani, so I don't know where that leaves the fight.

I guess he'll just give Cerrone 10% of his purse or some shit, but as they are friends I'm kinda worried it'll get cancelled.

Because he doesn't want to cut the weight, he's going to be giving up 20 percent of his fight purse. Had the option to lose the weight in an hour and only give up 10 though.

Cerrone said he's fine with him coming in heavy also.
