Frankie Edgar's victory at UFC Fight Night 57 was the kind of performance that garners most people a title shot but the No. 2 ranked featherweight is not taking any chances.
Immediately after submitting Cub Swanson late in the fifth round Edgar said he hoped to have earned a title shot against UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo. In fact Edgar took it one step further and picked the time place and venue. Now he just needs the champ to agree and matchmaker Joe Silva to book it.

Well fight fans what say you
Is Edgar next in line for a title shot or are you in the 47 percent who think that McGregor would be the more interesting fight
Assuming of course Dennis Siver doesn't have something to say about that first
