Frankie Edgar is a fighter who is hard to root against. He has that warrior spirit and can never be counted out of a fight. People thought he couldn’t beat BJ Penn. Edgar did it two times. People thought Edgar wouldn’t beat Gray Maynard in the trilogy fight. Edgar stopped Maynard in the fourth round at UFC 136.
After two close defeats to lightweight champion Benson Henderson, in fights people thought Edgar won, the former champion returns to action tomorrow night.
This time, Edgar is returning in a different weight class.
Edgar is moving down to featherweight and will face off against UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo in the main event of UFC 156. Can Edgar become the champion tomorrow night or will Aldo be too much?
Let’s take a look and see why you should be rooting for the former lightweight champion.
