That's what I'm talking about! Fighter stepping up!
Edgar is going to take a beating. Edgar is moving down because he knows he can't beat Ben Henderson. Henderson is a stud, but he's no Aldo. Frankie's biggest asset was his mobility and speed. Aldo is faster and extremely more violent. Aldo going destroy Frankie's legs with his kicks.
As for Sonnen, he'd get spanked by most of the top LHWs. He doesn't belong in there with Jones. Thats just Dana White trying to sell a PPV.

Yah, even though I'm not a fan of the Jersey shore midget, he won that second fight with Henderson.

Hell no! He never hurt Henderson the entire fight. Ben just took extra shots because absolutely no respect for Frankie's power. All Edgar did was catch the leg kicks and land some inneffective shots. Henderson landed his kicks at will. That will not work against Aldo. Jose will punish his legs.
Henderson beat Frankie up. Edgar just scored points for the judges. Frankie never had a chance to stop Ben. Henderson just walked him down the whole fight, showing no concern or respect for his power.

LOL I noticed that too. Frankie definitely won the second fight, three rounds to two. He didn't do it convincingly at all, but he landed more.

Anderson Silva vs GSP becoming more and more likely

possibly taking place in Cowboys Stadium
Silva and St. Pierre have been the two most dominant champions in UFC history – Silva at middleweight and St. Pierre at welterweight. White said that if St. Pierre beats Carlos Condit in November, that a match with Silva "could be the next fight."
"These guys want to fight each other now," White said. "If you're a fighter and you've dominated as long as Anderson has and you've been as great as long as Georges has, you say, 'I think I can beat this guy.'"

Thankfully the judges were smart enough to realize Frankie wasn't doing any damage. He just landed more shots.

I don't think GSP would be able to handle Spider's pinpoint striking.
