Frankie Edgar is under new management in the name of Dominance MMA.

Weeks after UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and manager Shari Spencer broke apart, the fighter sealed a deal with a new management.

MMAWeekly’s sources said that Edgar will start working with Dominance MMA headed up by Ali Abdel-Aziz. The team, together with Edgar’s wife Renee, will be handling the career of the fighter.

Abdel-Aziz manages several fighters including Renzo Gracie, Ricardo Almeida, Rafael “Sapo” Natal, Igor Gregos and Rolles Gracie. Edgar is a mainstay at the main Renzo Gracie academy in NYC and also trains at Ricardo Almeida’s gym in New Jersey.

Edgar will be back in the octagon this May as he defends his belt against Gray Maynard their last fight ended in a draw. Edgar will be training with his team at Renzo Gracie’s as he prepares for the trilogy against Maynard at UFC 130.
