I emailed Frankie one time and told him what big fans of his my son and I are and told him how we could never catch him at a fan expo. I told him my son’s birthday was coming up and how much he wanted his autograph. He emailed me back in under five minutes asking for my address. He even paid to mail it and the best part was it arrived on my son’s birthday. Such an amazing human being man! 😢🐐
😮🎉 👏
Criminally underrated fighter. Easily top 15 all time.
Nah, he below Dustin The Diamond Poirier 💎💪

No he’s not.

You are clueless then, I’m afraid.
Top 10 bro

Nice way of showing you’re a casual. He beat Sherk, drew with and finished Maynard, got robbed by Bendo, beat Swanson twice, beat Stephens and beat Yair. Not to mention how competitive he was against prime Aldo, Holloway and Chito.
Just under 8 hours in the ring. What a legend. Well deserved.

@@T-Lo_OneHunnit sorry. Court****
Heart of an absolute champion and a true ambassador to the sport. Congratulations Frankie 👊🏻
I swear Frankie was the reason a lot of the fighters we have today became fighters. Big Dawg Frankie
The answer is put into the hall of fame and he is a legend
Frankie is a legend
love when the smaller guy who is doubted rises up and bullies the bully..
He always had the Right “Answer” for everything in the Octagon.
One of the Greatest LW to ever grace the Octagon.
Frankie Edgar already earned his legendary status when he survived the brutal assault Gray Maynard brought upon him in their 2nd fight when the UFC Lightweight Championship was on the line which resulted in a draw, leading to a 3rd fight between them where Edgar finally defeated Maynard in the 4th round via TKO. Those 2 title fights are truly one of my favorite fights in UFC history. Congratulations! 🙏
Hes a fine representation of NEW JERSEY STRONG
Prime Frankie fights with Gray Maynard and BJ Penn are legendary
Frankie Edgar always had heart........................he deserves this........................
Frankie the MAN in the Arena - Legendary
WE LOVE YOU FRANKIE!! THANKS FOR THE YEARS OF FIGHTING! ✅🏆❤️👑💫
Frankie Edgar is who legit got me into UFC/MMA. I remember sneaking and watching his 2nd fight with Gray Maynard in school during classes on my little iPod. I’m happy to see he’s getting honored as I always thought he should be. He was the small kids guy. As someone who was always undersized compared to my peers, it gave me so much happiness seeing him smash guys who were way bigger and more athletic than he was.
My all time favorite fighter!
Congratulations Frankie! Well deserved brother
From getting dropped multiple times in the first round against Maynard to delivering one of the most lit takedowns in UFC history this man has cemented himself as an absolute legend. He was champ in a division that wasn't even supposed to be his weight class and still competed at the highest level till the end of his career. This man truly deserves it.
Frankie!!!! So happy for you Champ!
His performance against Yair is still one of my favorites. Frankie beat so many good people but that one was impressive.
Congrats Frankie, such a great guy and coach. So honored i had the opportunity to become friends training partners and learn from you all those years at Rhino and Catones. No one is more deserving.
Frankie always was my number 1 favorite fighter when we was in there. So many legendary battles! So glad to see him in the hall of fame!
He deserves all the flowers he receives. Congratulations Frankie.
Frankie Edgar seldom took the easy route to victory upon his fighting style. He would often time study tapes of his personal fighting style to look at tidbits of stuff to see fighting videos and styles. He often work ride bikes to earn style points and stamina and stuff. My friends all liked the way his style of fighting looked when he was fighting during the fight.
When the all time conversation comes up, it's crazy how little fanfare this guy gets. He was a small bantamweight fighting, winning, and defending the lightweight championship of the world.
Grow up watching Frankie glad to see this for him legend of the sport
Frankie's second fight with Grey Menard is the greatest lightweight title fight 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
He never stopped working and was never out of a fight. He fought some wars!
My favorite lightweight fighter of all time. Absolute beast
Amazing fighter & champion
Frankie Edgar My all time favorite fighter! Congrats
I got into ufc in 2012. It was when Edgar was having his two fights with Ben Henderson. I was rooting for Frankie and I remember watching his highlights when he was champion and he became one of my favorites. I’ve watched all his fights from 2012 to his last. Thank you Frankie!
One of the GOAT in UFC The Answer letsss goooo
The true definition of fighter and champion. Well deserved!
Those wars with Gray Maynard were classics.
2025 jim miller🔥🔥🔥
Biggest heart in the sport and greatest short king
Congratulations Frankie it seemed like you reigned for a huge part of my life enjoy your family and friends in the next journey brother champion 🏆 🇺🇸❤️
This guy beat Yair, Charles Oliviera
One of my favorite fights of all time. Took part of my favorite trilogy with Maynard. The ultimate underdog. Well deserved. Welcome to the Hall of Fame
Frankie Edgar is the Brave Little Toaster of the UFC.
I swear i remember seeing his two fights with BJ Penn and Gray Maynard and man what fights those were to cement him as the Champ
Legend
Frankie deserves it.
A MASSIVE HEART.
Congratulations Frankie well deserved.
Congratulations Frankie Edgar! Well deserved 👏👏👏👏
A guy who just loved to trade bombs a legend good luck frankie !! Bow to a legend 👏
Just a Kid from New Jersey. Now a Hall Of Famer ❤🎉
One of the absolute best
Congratulations former champ, well deserved 💯
I love you frank And Will forever do 😭❤
Frankie is the man
FE true legend & ultimate warrior. Thought it was a fluke the 1st time he beat BJ then I realized after their rematch he was the real deal. This man may have been one of the smallest fighters to step in the octagon but he had a bigger heart than most heavyweights. I honestly think he got robbed in both fights against another all time great in Benson Henderson. Respect to The Answer 👏🏽
THANK YOU FRAINKIE!!
I cried
Frankie goes to my local MMA gym. Extremely solid guy. Nobody can say a bad thing about him that goes there
This is so awesome and utterly deserved. Frankie Edgar, Toms River, New Jersey. Hall Of Famer 😃👏🏼
I genuinely cried while I was eating my breakfast watching this. ❤
I grew up watching Frankie I’m so proud of him
All time fav fighter with Cruz
Well deserved The answer happy for him what a legend
Great Fighter🎉😊
Congratulations well deserved 🎉
Literally watched his entire UFC career. Had Penn WHOOPIN him....but Frankie pulled it out time and time again. Got to see him murk Rodriguez in Austin. Well deserved!!!!
Legend❤
Love you Frankie.
Short dude with the heart of a lion.

Well deserved... been a fan of frankie since 2010 ..... i was a bj penn fan after the frist fight he.won me over... long live frankie...
Thank you champ
Top fighter of all time
Well deserved 🎉
Frankie is one of the best to ever fight. I always talk about you got some Bruce lee in ya. Even my hero joey diaz says Bruce made you feel like that. Frankie made all of us feel like that. He's the best .
Him knocking out Maynard is my all time favorite moment next to bisping winning the belt. His sequel and trilogy fights w grey are the best mma fights ever.
The Rocky Balboa of UFC!!!! Congratulations 🎉 🏆
Thank you
I enjoy seeing who will be inducted into the HOF next. The UFC does great tribute induction videos like this one! Frankie deserves this, he really had no business being as successful as he was….the most undersized champion ever.
Easily one of the best fighters ever. You can tell someone is a great fighter when they fight people bigger, longer reaches, more weight, and this is basically Frankie did his whole career .
Jon Jones has longer limbs than everyone and does well, mcgregor has the reach of someone 6’2 while fighting short dudes, all these fighters squeeze down to frankies weight like Holloway despite being tall and are super skinny bc they can’t hang with people their own size.
This is why Cormier is also awesome bc he was typically smaller than a lot of heavyweights and same with Mike Tyson .
Frankie is a legendary fighter
Frankie & Maynard fights legendary! Took a power shot from Maynards’s right hand that shattered Frankie’s nose and made him do a backwards somersault essentially, and he still popped up nose bleeding everywhere came back at Maynard full steam and knocked ass down. Dude was a dog.!!!
Don’t let this distract you from the fact Allen was robbed by Goddard and the judges. Dagestani privilege is real.
Atrocious robbery for real.
He is not dagi rat tho, he is from Ingoushita
Heart
Only man to get dropped 8 times in 1 round and still win. Heart bigger than body
Frankie was a beast, wish lighter weight classes came earlier because he would have been unstoppable with guys his size. Always fought bigger guys and still dominated
The Rocky Marciano of MMA.
well deserved
Well deserved
As long as DC approves that’s means it’s legit
The ufc rocky balboa
king
👏👏👏
Let’s goo Frankie please put glover here
Never
Hot take: Frankie Edgar ranks higher on the all time list than BJ Penn. And I will GLADY debate that anybody.
It's crazy to think that even at 135, there were guys much bigger than him
If tou say haert, tou haver tô think in Edgar
Frankie got solides wins :
Charles Oliveira
Cub Swanson
Gray Maynard ×3
Bj Penn ×3
Yair Rodriguez
Chad Mendes
Pedro Munhoz
Jeremy Stephens
Urijah Faber
Got wins in three differents weight class
I really believe that he could've beat Conor McGregor if both fought years ago.
Really hope to have prime time UFC LW Champion character in EA UFC 5 game 🔥
Please do hunt vs Bigfoot 1 than cro cop than andrei arlovski and wanderlei silva
The Rocky Balboa of the UFC
ULTIMATE TAKEDOWN CHAMPIONSHIP
Toms River baby
The REAL definition of P4P 💪🥊🇺🇸
