And just as one fight week ends, another begins.� Last week, we had the buildup to UFC on FOX 4, which on Saturday night gave us the next light-heavyweight challenger to the belt.� This week we have UFC 150 on tap, which will see the rematch between UFC lightweight champ Benson Henderson and former champ Frankie Edgar.� So, you ready for another round of UFC-flavored news tidbits leading up to a night of action?� I know I am.
- The first shot across the bow in terms of UFC 150 interviews is one with Frankie Edgar, fired by the cannon manned by MMAWeekly.�
"It definitely doesn't feel right," Edgar said about not being champion when speaking to MMAWeekly Radio.� "Especially when people say 'former UFC world champion'.� You try not to put everything on world titles and whatnot, but being champ is nice."
Edgar gets to rectify the situation on Saturday.� Think he can do it?
- Former UFC middleweight champ Rich Franklin is fighting former Strikeforce star Cung Le at UFC on Fuel TV 6, which will take place on November 10 in Macau (which is a Las Vegas-type island right outside of China).� Having Le on the card seemed like a no-brainer, but it appeared as if he'd broken his foot defeating Patrick Cote at UFC 148; I guess his foot will be okay in time for Franklin.
�
- The ratings are in for UFC on FOX 4, and though the show ended up being a stellar example of how exciting a UFC event can be, the event did go up against the Olympics and the numbers reflect that.� MMAPayout is reporting an average of 2.14 viewers, which makes the event the lowest-rated of the four UFCs that have aired on FOX.
