    No surprise here as we've known about this for a week. Frank Edgar's win over Joe Veach was enough to get him a title shot against BJ Penn at UFC 112.

    Edgar is 11-1, his lone win coming against Gray Maynard (decision) at Ultimate Fight Night 13 in 2008.

    Edgar has wins over Sean Sherk, Hermes Franca, and Tyson Griffin, among others.

    This should be another brutal beatdown by Penn if he continues training hard.

    Penn will dominate this fight. Should be a little more exciting that a Penn/Maynard matchup anyway

    It'll be fucking boring. Penn by pure domination.
