    Exactly. When I watch Frankie Edgar peppering someone with points-scoring punches, throwing in a takedown or two, and picking up the UD he strategized for, it makes me miss so much the days when Crocop tried to break bones and Fedor slipped on submissions before his opponent knew what was happening.

    He looks no different to Mike Bisping when he dropped to 185 for the first time !!!

    He has had plenty of time to get the cut right , he is injury free , in theory this should be the best Wandy we have seen in 18 months

    If he loses to Leben he's done , but im pretty certain he wont , he has all the intangables over Leben and will TKO him ..........

    It's also worth noting that CC and co fought when the rules were closer to Vale Tudo or simply Vale Tudo. The rules allowed for far tougher and gruelling fights.
    Naturally in order to make the UFC more palatable the rules have been dummed down and fighters such as Edgar have taken full advantage. 10 years ago Edgar would positively have been a nobody.
