”I think everybody knows it should go to me,” Edgar said. “Even the guys who want the shot, you [hear] them say ‘Well, I know Frankie should get it, but...’ You know? Alexander Volkanovski is fighting Jose Aldo in a few weeks and that may have an impact, but I think everybody knows it’s me. I’ve worked my entire career for it to be me.”
”The fact I put it on the line the last time Max and I were supposed to meet up, that holds some weight,” Edgar argued. “I know the UFC likes to reward people who are willing to just let it fly. I’ve done that my whole career. I’m ready for that reward.”
”I know I’m only on a one-fight win streak,” Frankie admitted. “But people do realize that I took a risk and went for it. And I’d do it again, because that’s the kind of guy I am.”
Edgar demands title shot against Holloway: ‘I’m ready for that reward’
This isn't the most deserving point in Frankie's career but fans would get behind a fight between him and Max. Rankings have gone out the window in the UFC anyway. Frankie is 37 and has been a helluva competitor for years. Give him the shot, Dana!
