Frankie Edgar: Dana White 'knew I got stepped over' with Conor McGregor's title shot

Frankie Edgar's mic stylings may never reach the theatrical heights of Conor McGregor's, but sometimes the direct approach can be just as effective. After sweeping Urijah Faber with another brilliant performance Saturday night at UFC Fight Night 66, Edgar seized the moment and called out his boss, UFC President Dana White, who for the second time in as many fights, was nowhere to be found as Edgar outclassed another contender.

It was an honest, if rather unexpected rant as the usually reserved Edgar reminded audiences worldwide that White "owed" him a title shot and wondered aloud whether the UFC head was "ducking" him.
