Interesting result, I had it 49-46 for Munhoz, but all the rounds were close, I don't think it was a robbery by any stretch.

Have a bad feeling Edgar's going to get a title shot now. Obviously it should be Sterling vs Yan or nothing, but you never know with the UFC.

Edgar vs Cruz is the fight to make now imo.

Thought it was pretty close. And due to me betting on him, the correct call 

It's always close with Edgar due to the activity but there was no question who controlled the fight and landed the bigger shots. I thought it was an easy 49-46 but people love Frankie's pillow punch style so who am I to judge.

Exactly my thoughts too. The #s are super close, maybe even in Edgar's favor, but I just feel like each significant strike from Munhoz was more significant than Frankie's.

Only round I gave Frankie was the 2nd. Every other round, he was on his back foot countering and eating the bigger shots from Pedro. I'm not surprised by the decision but, if octagon control is a scoring factor, in a close fight, how does the guy controlling the action and landing the bigger shots lose?

Yea all I kept thinking in the close rounds were similar strikes, bigger shots to Munoz and octagon control definitely Munoz

How many old dudes does Yan have to fight before getting the new blood? Faber-Aldo-Edgar? It better be Sterling vs Yan. Wasn't like Edgar went out there and starched Pedro.
