Urijah Faber and Frankie Edgar vow to 'bring it' on UFC Manila

Top mixed martial arts stars Urijah Faber and Frankie Edgar both promises to leave no stone unturned when they square-off in Ultimate Fighting Championship's first event in the Philippines on Saturday at Mall of Asia Arena.

"Training camp went really well, I can't complain one bit. I trained eight hard weeks," said Faber in a packed press conference in Solaire.

"I'm gonna bring it from the beginning then I'll be looking for a finish and have a high paced fight. You got two skilled guys, two guys who are gonna go for the kill and I think it's gonna be fireworks."



The former UFC lightweight champion Edgar expects nothing less from Faber either as he looks to make a lasting impression in front of their Filipino fans come fight night.

"I bring it every time so I hope he brings it. That's what we came here to do -- we came here to fight, put on a show and we'll make it a night to remember," said Edgar.

"You don't see too many flaws in his (Faber) game. He's a mixed martial artist who can transition to each style pretty well. He can do it all, he's not like a one trick guy. He throws with a lot of speed, he goes for takedowns, he's got great submissions." -- JST, GMA News
