FRANKIE EDGAR VS BENSON HENDERSON 2 ANNOUNCED
By Joe Lebeau on 3/6/2012 7:15 PM
After much speculation, and endless campaigning from Edgar's camp, Frankie Edgar and Benson Henderson will indeed go at it again.
UFC president Dana White announced it via Twitter.
"Frankie Edgar and Ben Henderson rematch will be this summer." he tweeted.
The two most recently faced each other at UFC 144 in Japan, where Henderson defeated Edgar for the UFC lightweight title via unanimous decision. The fight was close, however, and many fans, including myself, scored it for Edgar.
The bout is expected to go down this summer, perhaps on the UFC's annual 4th of July weekend show. It is being speculated that Anthony Pettis will face the winner of the upcoming Nate Diaz/Jim Miller fight to determine the next title challenger.
