If it happens.It will be a war.
War.
My money on Max , k.o by round 3
 
I'll get back to you after the Frankie fight
 
I got money on Max...better striking always gives Alvarez trouble...Poirier was picking Alvarez apart...
 
Max is a world beater, I won't bet against him till it bites me, then I'll consider it. But for now, I put my money on Max against anyone in his weight class or the one above.
 
What weight t.s?

155 ill go alvarez

145 holloway (dont think alvarez can make 145 though)
 
People's perception of how good Max is, owing to the fact they remember him losing to DP and Conor, but the reality is he was a child then, like 20 years old, but has been steadily improving since then and now is a full grown man. Max is a freaky combo of speed, endurance, toughness, cardio and size.....kinda like a faster twitched Diaz brother that is a complete fighter and can kick/defend against the kicks or a non sloppy Tony Ferguson.
 
If Max can go up in weight and perform the way he does at 145, he makes it look easy.
 
Why would this even be a possibility?

So nothing like a Diaz briher
 
Holloway, better striking, better chin, better cardio. Alvarez would have to grapplefuck him for 25 minutes. Don't see it happening

You think max would beat kabib?
 
Holloway, really feel like Alvarez is a middle of the pack lw fighter who had good game plans and fought in a boring way to become champ. Also clear that RDA weight cut made him lose more than anything else, so yea, i say Holloway makes him look really bad.
 
holloway for sure.
alvarez is a allrounder that does nothing really good and alvarez does not have a good striking defense.
pro side on alvarez is hes a grinder that tries to grind the opponent with mid tier skill out but holloway has cardio for days.
 
Only fighter giving max problems at FW is Mendes and that's generously believing USADA hasn't ruined him.

At Lightweight, khabib. Max would batter Eddie with volume from a safe distance.

Max is a handful for anyone at 45 or 55. Would love to see him fight Diaz tho.
 
We haven't seen Max stuff takedowns vs a high level wrestler. That's the only question remaining.
