Frankie Edgar vs Ben Henderson rematch booked for summer!
Frankie Edgar:
"Rematch anyone??.......it's on!! Thanks to @danawhite @lorenzofertitta. Me and Henderson 2. Here we go!!"
"It was a relief, it really was. A weight lifted off my chest, it's been weighing on me. I definitely made it known that I wanted the rematch, I'm not going to sit there and I don't want to argue for a title, I want to fight for a title. I'm just happy I get to fight for it now.... Dana he was still concerned and I respect him for that. He thinks 145 might be better for the longevity of my career and my health and what not, and I disagree. Being the competitive person I am, feeling that maybe that fight should have went my way, I want another chance at it. That's when he said 'alright man, you're going to get it."
Frankie Edgar on Ben Henderson
It's tough. You know, a guy like that is really tough to duplicate, as far as training partners go. You get a little mixture of this and that in different guys and you try to prepare the best you can for him. You know, I think it's just his scrambling ability. He scrambles really well and he's a great athlete. He throws good knees and stuff like that. I don't wanna get caught with one of them, for sure.
Edgar excited to fight Henderson!
“He’s been on a tear since he came over from the WEC. He’s beat all the top contenders, so he’s more deserving of a title shot. He’s real exciting. He’s young and hungry, so I know I‘ve got my hands full. I know it will be a good one. He’s a good fighter, so I’m going to go in there and do everything I’ve got to do to win.”

Ben Henderson thinks his title shot is a great matchup
"I think it's a great matchup. With Frankie, I think I match up very well, I just have to stick to the gameplan, do a little bit better job of that. But, I'm very excited for that, Frankie and I are going to put on a great show."
Frankie Edgar vs. Ben Henderson @ UFC 144
The fight is official guys. We'll be seeing them fight @ UFC 144 probably on February 26, 2012 at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. Another certain bout will be between Jake Shields and Yoshihiro Akiyama. UFC President Dana White stated: "Verbal agreements are in for a welterweight matchup in Tokyo, Japan between former Strikeforce champion Jake Shields and Asian superstar ‘Sexyama' Yoshihiro Akiyama February 26th". Also after the title bout Rampage Jackson told he that wants to fight in Japan. White confirmed that he'll be on the card.
Ben Henderson thinks he is better than Frankie Edgar in every way.
"I think I can hold an advantage in a lot of places, where ever I take it. I think I'm as confident as any other fighter out there, you know, I'm as confident as any fighter in the UFC. I think my boxing's a little bit better than his. I haven't really showcased that in a fight yet in the Octagon. I think my kickboxing is better, I think my Muay Thai is better, I think my wrestling is better, I think my jiu-jitsu is better, but that's just because I'm a fighter, of course I'm going to think I'm better. If I can put it all together and perform well when the lights are on and when it's time to actually perform, I think I definitely hold the edge."
