Just speak on it. Nobody cares about that fight.
If you're gonna rank Edgar at all he's gotta rank at least top 3. Charles Oliveira? LOL. Edgar would beat him easily

Where did you hear the bolded?
Also, your ranking is pretty weird. Oliveria and KZ are too high. Mendes and Edgar are too low (should be top 3). How is Nam Phan in the top 10? Same with Hettes, who isn't top 10 yet. Hioki is too low (he should be in the top 10)

Koch and Chad Mendes are better than Frankie?
You could argue for Mendes, he's only lost to the champ and has beaten the likes of Koch, Yahya, and Swanson.

How is KZ ranked too high when he is the next in line for the title shot?

Here is the logic for the list
Korean Zombie vs Porier was #1 contender fight hence his place.
Koch is a top prospect to yet fight for the title and though he was more given a title shot then earned I like his chances against Aldo.
Mendes is the the 2nd best in FW , but should have to take a one to two more fights before a title shot hence his place. Edgar is unproven at FW hence in the middle since we have no idea what a weight cut will do to him.
I am very high on Oliveria and feel he could be a star in the making and think a Mendes-Oliveria fight would be very logical at this point also explaining their rankings.
Jimy Hettes is a very high level fighter and deserves his place
Hikoi is imo 1-2 and not worthy of a top 10 spot he is probably number 11, him vs. Nam Phan would make sense to show who deserves the tenth spot.

I'm pretty sure Edgar has to bulk up for MW...I remember reading he walks around at like 145
Compared to Aldo who walks around at like 170...and he's had some bad weight cuts before.
Frankie will have no trouble cutting weight might even have more KO potential to add to his speed. This is gonna be such an awesome fight

Edgar walks around at 158 - 160. He will cut 13-15 pounds for this camp.
