I’ve re-watched that rematch between UFC Lightweight Champion Frankie “The Answer” Edgar and No. 1 challenger Gray “The Bully” Maynard, and I still can’t figure out how it was a draw. The Answer showed incredible heart and chin recovering from the savage assault he endured in the first, but no way Maynard didn’t win that scrap.
No way, which means the trilogy-maker should be a burner of the first order.
Turns out the mini-Couture is, in fact, Justin Edwards and not Tony Ferguson. Oops.
Regardless, we haven’t seen much of either of these dudes so it’s tough to get a read on who has the advantage.
Team JDS seems a little bummed about the departure of Coach Lew Polley, but who knows if that’s just about resisting change or a genuine affection for Lew. Seems like the latter and, if that’s the case, it bears mentioning since so much of the fight game is mental.
