Nobody really seems to be giving Edgar a shot in this one, but I love this kid’s style. I think he brings his A game and we get to see an exciting back and forth fight. Does he win? Probably not, but he definitely has a good chance. I wouldn’t be suprised if he pulls the upset.

I would be surprised. Muscle Shark has only lost to the best of the best in his career.

I do think Edgar stands a chance. Remember he beat Franca, Fisher, and Griffin. All of which are great stand up guys. Won those by decision. And lost to Maynard but lost by decision.

But with Sean Sherk’s boring ass ability to take PRACTICALLY every fight to a decision. I think it will go to Sherk.

pretty sure millers jits is way better than frankie edgars. it looked like he was holding back on his submission attempts and edgar was getting frustrated.

Yeah nothing impressive from Edgar there at all, he was getting schooled.

Why would he let that go out?? Isn’t he meant to be a purple belt under someone?

He also looked very small, Sherk is going to maul him down to 145.

Edgar is in trouble miller just dominated him, passed his guard with ease and was looking for submissions.Edgar could not do anything with him, sherk is going to eat him alive!

Miller may have better Jiu-Jitsu, but Frankie already beat him in MMA.

He was having a lot of trouble with Jim Miller’s wrestling in that video. I’m betting hard on Sherk
