This weekend will host UFC 136, one of the most anticipated cards of the year headlined by a third bout between UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and No. 1 contender Gray Maynard.
They last fought to draw at UFC 125, where Edgar looked to be all but out in the first round after a barrage of punches from the challenger.
Edgar survived, getting dropped three times to fight back and earn a draw while retaining his title.
Edgar is 0-1-1 against the challenger, and they will fight for the third time this Saturday.
It has been a while since the UFC has featured a third bout between two fighters. Some of the more famous trilogy fights the Octagon has hosted include Chuck Liddell vs. Randy Couture and the third bout between Quinton Jackson and Wanderlei Silva.
These are four trilogies we would like to see in the near future.
