Bendo/Edgar II

Maybe if I injected Red Bull directly into my adrenal glands I would feel some artificial sense of excitement towards Edgar/Henderson 2. It’s not the thought of the fight but more so the timing that bothers me; another immediate rematch for the lightweight title. What if Edgar wins or they draw, do we go to an immediate rubber match, continuing the log-jam in the LW division? Nate Diaz is standing by waiting for his title shot, which will happen in December at the earliest. If Edgar narrowly wins or they draw Nate could be in holding until next spring, if current trends continue. I like the idea of rematches and rubber matches, but these last two years have been excruciating. I wasn’t even that stoked for Edgar/Maynard 3 to tell the truth. I hope Bendo defends his title successfully and Frankie finally makes the drop to 145 to face Aldo.
