I don't like Frankie Edgar (especially after in real life he just came out and said a win over his next opponent should get him a title shot - he lost his last 3 fights prior to that!!!), BUT, I do kind of like that he constantly takes damage for the first round or two of a fight, then comes back strong. Sometimes it works and he wins, other times not so much, but it's a really weird tendency he has in this simulator that no one else does. He does it almost all the time. It's odd.
