Who do you think wins: Melendez-Edgar unification?

Melendez hasn't had to fight BJx2,Maynard,Sherk,Griffin,Miller,Fisher and Franca.

To me the #1 LW is easily between Maynard and Edgar. Nobody has yet to beat Maynard. and he has beaten edgar,Florian,Diaz,Huerta,Miller,Siver,clementi.

those are 2 very impressive resumes, Melendez has a great record and is on a role but it seems he spealizes in beating up Japenese fighters.

 

When did Frankie beat Gray?

 

:-((
he is a pure KO puncher every time i watch him he knocks me to sleep and that should say a lot.

 

I think Gilbert will crush Edgar the guy has unbelievable cardio and sets a ferocious pace I see Frankie wilting under the pressure.

Melendez in 3 for me.

 

Edgar has his hands full with Maynard at the moment (someone he has failed to beat on 2 occasions). Then there's the whole Pettis thing to deal with, and Pettis has to get past Guida, who may well get a title shot if he beats Pettis. People have been screaming (rightfully) for Miller to get a title shot as well. This is not even taking into consideration the Guillards, Wimans, Lentz's, Sotiropoulii and Siver's of the division.

By the time we get around to seeing a unification bout the title picture could be very, very different.

 

pettis is the man.
he will run through guida like a samurai sword through butter.
he getts the title shot and gets it

 

I certainly hope so. Pettis would be a fantastic champion.

 

He beat him in the second fight IMHO, Its close though give the guy credit.

Edgar is one of those unique athlete, now im not going to compare him to Bones because no one in MMA compares to Jon Jones as a specimen at the moment. But Edgar has a very high IQ and is very adaptive. He also has a heart of a champion. He will beat Gray clearly in the third fight just because, he progresses incredibly fast. Just think of the 1st BJ and Maynard fight as compared to the 2nd one.

 

My bad it was a draw, although I thought Edgar eeked it out.

 

Melendez hands although powerful, look sloppy to me. I think Edgar can take advantage of that and work the jab on Melendez's face :yep

 

Melandez, by decision. Frankie is gonna be hard to beat but I think Melandez is more well rounded. We all know that Frankie has a good wrestling and boxing game. But on the feet Melandez can mix up strikes better than Frankie, and on the ground. I think Melandez has a way better ground game, and not scared to use it. Just my opinion.
