Melendez (Pictured), on “The Savage
Dog Show,” discussing what to expect if he fights Frankie
Edgar or Gray
Maynard:
“Some really good displays of MMA, I can guarantee you, when we fight. You’ll see everything -- transitions, grappling, fighting, combos from your feet to takedowns to jiu-jitsu positions to ground-and-pound. I think the sport will evolve in front of everyone’s eyes if you have matchups like me versus Frankie or me versus Gray.”
