| Frankie stuffed 17 shots from Gray, those 17 in the first fight resulted in Frankie on his back for 3 rds, I'd say wrestling had an influence in this fight without a doubt. | |

| aight, nonfactor was too strong, but stuffed takedowns do not a fight make, this was predominantly a kick boxing affair. | |

| To be honest i think we can all agree that the 3rd fight should be a great 1. | |

| It was only a kickboxing affair because of the wrestling of Frankie Edgar dictating the fight staying where it was. How are we having issues with this guys? Further I think the lack of takedowns from Gray made a palpable difference in how the latter part of the fight was scored. IE effective grappling. | |
