Pros React: Frankie Edgar's Retirement | UFC 281 | MMA Fighting

[@Wendelvendel]

All the love to Frankie Edgar. Hope he does it tomorrow night!

I understood Jose was trying to create a compilation video of that, when he was asking the Frankie question, going off-topic. It is finally here, I see.

Shouldn't Frankie Edgar be in GOAT conversations At least as far as LW He arguably had no business fighting at that weight. Not cause he was too big. But because he was too small. And went on to beat the greatest LW at the time for the belt twice in BJ Penn who Anderson Silva considers the greatest MMA fighter of all time. Who could dispute it? In those days no one could stand with him. No one could grapple with him. And Frankie did both. It took a whole practical MW to beat prime BJ Penn. Frankie arguably beat a better version than GSP did. This was the BJ Penn who fixed his gas tank after losing to GSP and dominating championship fights for the championship rounds without getting tired

Its admirable how they talk of frankie, it sounds like they all love him and thats awesome

[@bleekskaduwee6762]

I remember the first time I saw Frankie Edgar fight was against Tyson Griffin and I remember thinking after that fight he was going to be a champion one day

[@adamm5172]

My Favorite fighter EVER !! my jaw was on the floor when he beat BJ Penn at UFC 112 then he dominated him in the rematch. Then the gray Maynard fights go without explaining. Legend. H.O.F. lock 💪💯

[@Kwigs_kun]

Thanks for putting this video together, great to hear all the love and respect for Frankie. Man is a legend and a hero to short men everywhere. Thoroughly deserved.

[@Trizzle2Jernts]

One of the names I remember, growing up and watching MMA. Would say he's one of the fighters who got me interested in watching MMA. Hope he has a good life 👍

Look at his resume; Miller Griffin Hermes Franca Sherk BJ Penn x2 The bully Maynard Benson Henderson x2 Jose Aldo Charles Oliviera BJ Penn (again) Cub Swanson Urijah Faber Chad Mendes Aldo (Again) Jeremy Stephens Yair Ortega Swanson (Again) Max Holloway TKZ Pedro Munhoz Cory Sandhagen Marlon Vera

Legend

[@sodobson]

there comes a time for all fighters when the body says NO MORE.. for Frankie.. that was about 6 fights ago. He's takes so much unnecessary damage the past 5.. with major KO's.. that may pay him bk down the road. He aint beating any top 15 fighter.. And its the truth. He's a legend.. i love this dude.. but get out of the ring.. enjoy your family and save your faculties. thanks for a great career. LEGEND>
