Frankie Edgar may have a featherweight fight lined up this weekend against “The Korean Zombie” at UFC Busan, but the former UFC lightweight champion has said he still plans to move down to 135 pounds to try and capture the belt in that weight class.
Edgar (22-7-1) withdrew from a bantamweight fight against Cory Sandhagen that was scheduled for January of next year to fight Chan Sung Jung at UFC Busan, after Jung’s original opponent Brian Ortega pulled out of the fight with a knee injury. Talking recently to MMA Fighting, Edgar spoke about still wanting to drop down to bantamweight in the future.
