GARBAGE!! as bad as it is to say I dont think any title fight should go to a draw. I think if it is that close... which it was, i think you should let the champ be the winner. Which is what I think happened in Machida v. Rua

But the champ still keeps his title in a draw anyway, so...
I don't think they should just give it to the champ if it's that close and I don't think that the judges should lean towards the champ just because they hold the belt. Both guys should be on equal playing fields, no matter which one is the champion and which is the challenger.
And after thinking it over, I actually support the draw because really, neither guy deserved to lose that fight. If Edgar won and kept his title, there'd always be the question of if he deserved it and if Maynard won there would always be the question of if he REALLY beat the champ, so maybe this is for the best. There's going to be a rematch to decide once and for all who deserves the title, so I think everything works out.
