You're selling Edgar short.

Yes, Frankie will probably get obliterated.. but I would've taken him over Diego. Him vs Kenny is a 50/50 fight.

Diego's standup is awfully predictable. His wrestling is no where near Frankie's.

Well obivously we have different opinions then. I take Diego and Florian over Edgar anyday. And even if Edgar's wrestling is better, he has to be able to take Penn down and who was the last one able to do that? GSP? To say Penn's stand up is predictible isnt true either, otherwise it wouldnt be nearly as effective as it is. We will see shortly but if Edgar wants to stand then let him, if he wants to take it to the mat then good luck as I dont see Edgar being remotely as good as Penn in either area.

I'd like to see Penn sub him in under a minute. He could if he wanted to, but he prefers to stand for a show.

Edgar isn't going to be able to take down BJ, nor is he going to be able to strike with BJ. Neither could Diego and neither could Kenny.

What I am saying is that Diego's standup was predictable as hell and BJ and everyone else knew it. Diego's wrestling isn't even close to Frankie's. The only thing Diego would have over Frankie is better BJJ and more size.

Apologies, I misunderstood then, I thought you were saying Penn's standup was predictible.

After thinking about it, I would probably take Edgar over Diego as his stand up is so bad that its a major handicap. I still take Florian over Edgar though.

Hell, Frankie has done more then Diego and Kenny combined in 1 round.

He probably lost round 1 due to the shots that BJ landed, but Frankie is doing good right now.

If anyone still has the link to a live stream, I would love a PM.
