Could Frankie be the first to hold a title in three different weight classes?

No. He will get 2 when Aldo moves up.

Well 135 is a totally different division compared to 155. They are really fast compared to LW and quickness was one of Frankie's best weapons in 155. At 135 that weapon is basically nullified. There is of course the obvious size upside, but I don't think it's as good an advantage as being the fastest at 155. I think 145 is the best compromise of size and speed, where we'll see Edgar at his best.

He won't get 2

He's got the best shot at it right now for sure, if he wanted to cut weight like the majority of fighters he would be a 135er and he will be the smaller fighter on saturday.
