While UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar is
probably one the nicest guys you’ll ever meet, don’t be surprised if
he’s developed a bit of an attitude the next time you see him.
You see, for some reason a pair of consecutive wins over the man
generally regarded as the greatest lightweight of all time, B.J. Penn,
hasn’t been enough to earn “The Answer” much respect among many MMA
observers and fans.
After defending his belt for the first time at Saturday night’s UFC 118
event in Boston, Edgar said he’s well-aware of his detractors. If you’re
among them, Edgar says, hang tight – you’ll eventually come around.
