Frankie Edgar has high praise for Nate Diaz; talks UFC 150 rematch vs. Ben Henderson

In this video courtesy of FuelTV, Frankie Edgar had some positive words for Nate Diaz following his decisive victory over Jim Miller at UFC on Fox 3 in New Jersey, going as far as to call Diaz “kind of a teammate.” Edgar did not expect Miller to be finished, as it had never happened in a UFC Octagon until Saturday night. Edgar may find himself facing Nate Diaz soon should he regain the Lightweight championship in his rematch with Ben Henderson.

While Edgar states that he believes the fight would take place in September, it has been confirmed that the rematch will indeed headline the historic UFC 150 at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado. It will remain to be seen if Edgar’s medical issues with his nose that he spoke of will affect his attempt to regain the coveted Lightweight belt. Can he find a way to deal Ben Henderson his first UFC loss?
