The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale: 11 UFC Matches To Make For The Winners

1. Frankie Edgar

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQRzhj2r5eU With apologies to B.J. Penn... that wasn't a victory. It wasn't a TKO. It was a mercy killing. Frankie Edgar retired B.J. Penn once and for all on Sunday. It was a bittersweet victory for Edgar, and one that was hard for fans to watch. Where does it leave Edgar? Looking up at Jose Aldo. When Dana White referred to Edgar as number three in the division Sunday night, Edgar replied with "I thought I was number two" then sort of shrugged it off and basically asked for who ever was number two. Now, Edgar actually is number two as I write this, having just passed Cub Swanson, and the two are basically neck and neck. I actually would prefer Swanson to get the next shot, however if that can't happen due to Aldo's injury and Aldo vs. Mendes 2 being delayed, then pair up Edgar and Swanson for a title eliminator. Both those guys can put on a show, and would deliver an absolutely sick fight.
