Fresh off the heels of the announcement of a third matchup against BJ Penn,Former UFC lightweight champion, Frankie Edgar, is wasting no time in hyping up this fight set for sometime in April of next year.
According to a twitter post from World Series of Fight Vice President and friend to all things MMA coming out of the upper east coast, Ali Abdel-Aziz, Frankie Edgar is running his mouth out on the east side about BJ Penn.

I just spoke to @FrankieEdgar. He said this time he is going to finish BJ. He will never want to fight again @ufc

Will Edgar deliver on these threats or will Penn get some redemption in this third showdown against the man who took his lightweight title?
