Frankie Edgar Wants UFC Retirement Fight vs. Dominick Cruz at MSG in November

Frankie Edgar is looking to fight one more time before hanging up the gloves.

The former UFC lightweight champion told ESPN's Brett Okamoto he requested UFC to book him a bout at the bantamweight limit in a potential November event at Madison Square Garden, after which he plans to retire:

"I've been kicking the idea of retirement around since my last fight. The last two fights obviously didn't go the way I wanted them to. If I'm being honest, I would fight forever — but that's kind of selfish to my family and the people that care about me.
