Frankie “The Answer” Edgar will take on another of Team Alpha Male’s big dogs in Chad “Money” Mendes as they headline the TUF 22 finale event on December 11, the night before featherweight champion Jose Aldo will face interim titleholder Conor McGregor to unify the featherweight belt in Las Vegas’s MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Edgar won a unanimous decision against Urijah Faber earlier this year, the founder and leader of Team Alpha Male.
If victorious against Mendes, the Toms River, NJ fighter is hopeful it will be enough to earn a second crack at the featherweight strap.
