Yesterday after Rafael dos Anjos withdrew from his UFC 196 lightweight title fight against Conor McGregor less than 2 weeks from the event, many top contenders began to campaign for the slot opposite McGregor on March 5th. Unfortunately, one of those men wasn’t Frankie Edgar, who has been campaigning for a fight against McGregor for quite some time. Edgar tore his groin and has been unable to train for the past 4 weeks, leaving him no choice but to turn down the fight.
