Wow. Why should Edgar move to the WEC? Can he fight at 145 or something?

Yeah that was Iole’s reasoning, since Edgar looked undersized in the Gray Maynard fight.
If he loses to Franca, depending on how he loses, I think you could make that case. But I don’t think he’ll lose to Franca.

i’m going back and forth on the edgar/franca fight..I’m thinkin franca might K.O. edgar. I know edgar has the more polished striking but franca dropped bombs on spencer fisher & edgar relied mostly on the takedown/ground & pound. I dont know if edgar will try taking franca down but franca has good subs.
