I like it when fighters actually call out post win. Put yourself in a better position. I'd love to see Edgar vs. Holloway headline either the TUF 22 Finale or co-main the FOX card in December.
I was pretty neutral about Max going in to this fight and I think his celebration was in poor taste based on how the fight ended. I think Frankie beats him though. I don't think Holloway can stop Frankie's wrestling
Max has already said he'd love to have that rematch, he's simply just being realistic and knows he isn't getting that rematch just yet since Conor is fighting Aldo and Edgar is going to be on the sidelines for a little bit, so Holloway/Edgar really is the best fight to make right now to determine the next #1 contender. It keeps both fighters busy and not having to wait like 6+ months for their next fight.
I wouldn't be shocked to see Frankie light him up and smother him, but I think Holloway has some real talent and is still improving. He is on his way up, and Frankie is known quantity, 10 years older, who is as complete a fighter as he is going to ever be.
