Abdelaziz felt that his client being smaller in comparison to McGregor would have no effect on the eventual outcome of the fight. He backed Edgar to not only come out on top against the Notorious One but also claimed that Edgar would ‘whoop McGregor’s a**".
Conor McGregor vs. Franke Edgar - Will it happen?
Frankie Edgar was quite honest about his desire to fight the Irishman in a recent interview with ESPN.
Edgar claimed that he has told both McGregor and UFC about his intentions to be involved in the big fight and stated that the ball is now in The Notorious One’s court.
The former UFC Lightweight Champion said:
Edgar believes that McGregor would be able to put all the recent controversies behind him if he accepts the proposal.
Conor McGregor is expected to return to the Octagon soon, however, the former ‘Champ Champ’ clearly wants to avenge his last loss and has openly demanded a rematch against Khabib Nurmagomedov. The Eagle wants McGregor to wait for his opportunities and has shifted his attention on Tony Ferguson.
With Khabib out of the equation, McGregor taking on Edgar is a great option on paper. Do you want to see Edgar vs. McGregor? If yes, how would the fight go down in your opinion? Sound off in the comments section.
