SEATTLE – On a card filled with split decisions, Yves Edwards came out on the short end of one. Edwards appeared to control the center of the octagon throughout the fight in a close standup battle. But it was Daron Cruickshank, who took the fight on short notice, who took home the decision with a pair of 30-27 scores – with Edwards getting a 30-27 of his own. The lightweight bout was part of today’s UFC on FOX 8 event at KeyArena in Seattle. It aired on FX following additional prelims on Facebook and ahead of a main card on FOX. Cruickshank went with a high kick 40 seconds in, but then ate one from Edwards in return moments later.
