If edgar wins does that mean we have to see another fucking lightweight rematch?

The rematch is happening fellas...I think its time to get over it lol.
I think people forget how close the first fight was, It wasnt a blow out by ANY means. But I really think the big up-kick and "Bendos face>Frankies face" played a big part in the feedback on here and other sites.
I know this doesnt mean anything as far as the outcome goes, But Sherdog and Bloody elbow gave EDGAR the fight, just to name a few sites. I think that qualifies as a "close fight"
Its wasnt the closest fight ever, but It WAS a close fight, and Im surprised that so many people are counting Frankie completley out. Like hes never looked human in a fight, only to come back and look much better in the rematch.
I mean when was the last time there was a close fight, and everybody counted one out in the rematch? And to count Frankie out of all people?
Frankie is getting that belt back in two weeks.

I think it depends on which judges show up lol. Yes, some probably would have given Frankie the nod last time, so if Frankie does the same thing, he could get the decision next time.

(in hindsight, edgar's ability there and maynard's lack thereof probably should have been a factor for me in predicting their second fight.) but benson is a smart fighter as well, and someone who will adapt. so which frankie shows up? which benson shows up?
my guess is that it'll be a very different fight.

I can honestly say, for the first title fight in ages, I dont care who wins. As long as there is no f*cking rematch afterwards.

I thought Edgar won the first. He did not clearly lose, imo. I hope he wins the rematch.
I picture rd in my head calling me racist right now.

Frankie is getting that belt back in two weeks. | Bendo is constantly improving as well. Just look at the first and second cerrone fights. Edgar is very durable and has a high fight IQ with a tremendous skill set. On the other hand so does Henderson. The difference to me is in hendersons physical gifts. Like his size and strength advantage.

& Still Champoin of the World BENSON Henderson!!!
I like Frankie but I do not believe he beats Bendo at all. I want Bendo to finish Frankie to put a stamp on his legitimacy.
