There's a lot on the line tonight as Gray Maynard takes on Nate diaz in the main event of Ultimate Fight Night 20 in Fairfax, Va. Maynard (8-0, 6-0 UFC) is in line along with Frank Edgar for a title shot against UFC lightweight champ B.J. Penn. A dominant victory over Diaz could propel Maynard into that fight which is rumored for Apr. 10 in Abu Dhabi. Or does it matter? Maybe Edgar is already locked into the fight. UFC matchmaker Joe Silvs was tight-lipped during yesterday's UFN 20 Q & A with Edgar at the Patriot Center.

If Maynard wins and Edgar still gets the shot, doesn't the former Michigan State wrestler has a legitimate beef? Afterall, he did dominate Edgar back at UFN 15 in Colorado.
