Should Max stay at 145 with Ilia moving up?

[JoeRowe]

Max vs Evloev, winner fights Lopes/Volk winner?

I know he looked great vs Gaethje but his quickest path back to a world title, if that's what he wants, is probably at FW.

Or should he just move up to 155 and take fun legend's fights vs Charles & Dustin?

 

[Domitian]

Imagine UFC booking Max vs Evloev. They'd really be putting Evloev through a fucking gauntlet to get that title shot.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

I want Max vs Pitbull

 

[svmr_db]

Nah the weight cut is taking more and more out of him as he gets older, its time to move up for good.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Max should fight Poirier for his last fight. Then he should take a few money fights and enjoy his family after retiring.

 

[TITS]

No more 145 for Max, he doesn't want to fight at that weight anymore.

Why? Is Ilia suppose to be some boogie man for Holloway where Ilia is always going to win? There bout was as close and one of most skilled striking bouts in years until Ilia landed that shot that he was searching for and pushing for. Holloway belongs right where he belongs at LW. Holloway is already proven that he belongs at LW with his win vs Gaethje and his close decision lost against Poirier for the title years ago. Ilia has proven himself at LW.

You know they'd love to do it lol

Well, considering Max has lost to Volk three times who is still at FW, the logic for him staying at 145 doesn't sound strong.

Max did tremendous against Justin Gaethje, so he absolutely should go to 155. He matches up well against Islam who is the guy he has to beat, not Topuria.

 

[Spacebadger]

Max and Volk should move up to 155, they fight a whole lot better when they were at 155.

145 is a stepdown.

Not when you consider age. At some point Volk will be washed & Max won't be. Look at Tito vs Chuck. And that's assuming Volk beats Lopes which is a big if at this point

 

[Kertol]

Nah, I don’t like seeing him do that weight cut.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Beat Charles (if he can) then retire..

 

[Sean Chowdhury]

max could just fight hooker(if he wins) or oliveira for the bmf belt, he doesn't have to win an actual belt at this point in his career

 

[BowserJr]

No Max should just do 155 BMF fights

 

[TITS]

Beat Charles (if he can) then retire..

Judging from how he looked after this last weight cut, he'll get KO'd again if he stays at 145lbs.

Charles got too much quit in him to be a BMF

The more your career goes on, the more you should avoid cutting weight for lower weight classes imo. Max has been in some wars and I'd hate to see him drain himself further cutting for 145.
