Who's got 'The Edge' in Conor McGregor vs. Chad Mendes at UFC 189?

Who’s got the edge in Saturday’s UFC 189 main event between Conor McGregor and Chad Mendes?

Ahead of the card, which airs on pay-per-view from Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass, veteran MMA analyst “Showdown” Joe Ferraro goes inside the headliner in this week’s edition of “The Edge.”

With champion Jose Aldo forced off the card, McGregor (17-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) meets Mendes (17-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) for an interim featherweight belt. McGregor is currently a -170 favorite, but is the line justified, especially when Mendes’ most obvious strength – wrestling – could be McGregor’s biggest issue? Or could McGregor’s striking edge be the difference-maker?

Ferraro breaks down the headliner in the above video.
