EDMONTON – An immediate rematch wouldn’t be off the table for Frankie Edgar if he’s able to take the featherweight title from Max Holloway on Saturday at UFC 240. A fight with top contender Alex Volkanovski (20-1 MMA, 7-0 UFC) in a stadium at UFC 243 is also of interest to the former lightweight champ, who makes his fourth attempt at retaking UFC gold Saturday night at Rogers Center. But when Edgar (23-6-1 MMA, 17-6-1 UFC) thinks about opportunities he’d grant, two-division champ Henry Cejudo ’s name isn’t in the mix. “I’m not thinking Henry, especially at 145, I’m definitely not thinking Henry Cejudo,” Edgar told MMA Junkie at a media day for the pay-per-view card. Cejudo (15-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC) covets a third UFC title after taking the bantamweight belt earlier this year, adding to a collection which also includes the flyweight belt. In an interview with ESPN, he named Edgar as his ideal opponent should an upset occur
