• Edge Shave Gel has announced “Team Edge 2012,” the second year of a commitment to identify rising stars in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and provide the chance for one of them to become an official spokesman for Edge. With the mentorship and coaching of UFC champion Dominick Cruz, four UFC fighters on the rise will compete for the public’s support to propel them into the spotlight as the next face of “Team Edge.”
Last year, Edge helped Team Edge winner Chad Mendes go from underdog to top contender in the UFC. This year, Edge is again looking to give guys the tools they need to rule the Octagon.
Competing for a year-long Edge sponsorship, the following fighters will go head to head for the lead in the “Team Edge” contest: Rory MacDonald, Chris Weidman, John Dodson and Joseph Benavidez.
UFC fans can vote at www.edgeshave.com/UFC to determine who should be the next face of “Team Edge.” The fighter with the most votes will be sponsored by Edge.
