(Christ, Dana, you’ve never heard of ‘personal space’?)
MMA Fighting is reporting that Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard have verbally agreed to meet for the third time in a headlining lightweight title fight at UFC 136 (October 8th, Houston). Following their draw at UFC 125, Edgar and Maynard were originally scheduled for a do-over at UFC 130 in May, which was postponed when both suffered injuries in training. The two 155′ers first met at UFC Fight Night 13 in April 2008, with Maynard winning by unanimous decision.
So, any predictions on how the re-rematch will play out? (I mean, it’ll end in a decision, obviously, but what kind of decision, and for who?) UFC 136′s current list of matchups is after the jump, including newly-added bouts featuring Demian Maia, Mike Russow, and Josh Grispi…
Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard (for lightweight title)
Chael Sonnen vs. Brian Stann (MW)
Demian Maia vs. Jorge Santiago (MW)
Dave Herman vs. Mike Russow (HW)
