Edgar was able to edge out a split decision over Munhoz is a closely-contested fight that went the full 25 minutes. Both men were able to land big shots on each other over the course of the five rounds, but when it was all over two of the judges sided with Edgar and gave him the victory over Munhoz in what was his official UFC bantamweight debut.

Frankie, who did not speak at the press conference due to being transported to the hospital, tells me he believes his leg will be fine and no real damage, just “a bit sore.

Edgar’s win over Munhoz puts him in a tremendous position at 135lbs. He just defeated the No. 5 ranked fighter in the division and another win or two could earn Edgar a title shot in his third different weight class. UFC president Dana White confirmed that Aljamain Sterling will be the next title contender for Petr Yan’s belt, but Edgar can’t be far behind after picking up this big win over Munhoz. Another top-five win and he could fight for the belt.
