This is a public service announcement to remind you that Frankie "The Answer" Edgar does indeed have power. Don't drink the hater-aid. That is all.

Doesn't mean Edgar doesn't have power

He knocked his block off with an arm punch.

Do me a favor; let me know when you’re getting up to go to the bathroom so I can sniff your chair.

Edgar doesn't have power

but he has great footwork and solid basic boxing skills.
And that’s good enough to get you a belt, so what else matters?

+1

you shoot enough rounds off into the sky and you’ll hit a bird or two.

Frankie’s style is VERY VERY effective, but it is not geared towards finishing.

you can have great movement and be light on your feet and bob and weave and be a high volume striker, or you can plant your feet and try to make people’s brains bounce against their parietal bones. Frankie wins fights.

obviously....

the fighter with 2 tko’s (over much much lesser opposition) is gonna “stretch” Frankie, who has never been stopped and is top 5 p4p…..

duh

Benson isn’t finishing Frankie, he doesn’t hit that hard and hasn’t come very close to finishing any UFC opponents, he ain’t finishing Frankie.

Anything can happen, but those who evaluate the matchup with a clear head should see that the most likely outcome is Edgar winning by decision. Frankie has outstruck WAY better strikers than Bendo and hasn’t been held down by anyone in recent history and barely at all in his career.

Bendo has recently lost to a fast agile fighter. Do the math.

You misspelled Clark Griswold
Do the math.

There is no math in MMA.

My eyes tell me Benson is better than Frankie.
That’s why I’m picking him. His size and strength will be a factor, not to mention Henderson isn’t exactly slow either.
I think Ben lands a frontheadlock/guillotine sometime during the fight.
His chokes are nasty.

ben hendersons got this its impossible to choke him out unless you’re an anaconda

God help me, I lusted, and there is a promise in such sweat. But it is a whore's vengeance, and you must see it; I set myself entirely in your hands. I know you must see it now.

i disagree with all yall

Frankie does have some power. His style is simply pick em apart and keep moving. But when he plants, I believe he has some power in those fists.

An example of nopower is pillowfists mcteatime (bisping) who plants, swings for the fences, and still nobody falls down

Bisping has more KO/TKO wins

than Frankie Edgar.
The truth hurts but there it is.
