Brian Ortega Hopes to Defy Critics by Finishing Frankie Edgar at UFC 222

In his 28 professional fights (22-5, 1 NC), Frankie Edgar has never been finished. He’s never been knocked out, he’s never been submitted. He’s been rocked a few times, especially in his wars with Gray Maynard, but he’s always managed to survive these close calls one way or the other.

This is music to the ears of Brian Ortega, the man Edgar will face this weekend.

The Mexican-American fighter takes on the former champion Edgar in the featherweight co-main event of UFC 222 on Saturday night in Las Vegas.
