Should he drop to Bantamweight, and if he wins the belt there, is he GOAT?

If not GOAT, surely top 3 GOATs.

His resume would be amazing
BJ Penn X3
Gray Maynard(when he was good)
Cub Swanson
Urijah Faber
Chad Mendes
Jeremy Stephens
Brian Ortega
Max Holloway
TJ Dillashaw
 
Hes not beating Max or Dillashaw. Those are fucking massive ifs.
 
He would get destroy by top 3 bw(Cruz,Tj and Cody)

Frankie is one of my favorite fighters.
But let us not start with GOAT talks just yet.

yes, he beat BJ P, but IMO it was not prime BJ... and his third fight...whatever it was, should not be counted as any accomplishment by anyone...

And I would not want him to move down to BW... but if he could do it, it would be an amazing feat (champion is 3 divisions) and will kill all Conor's schtick.
 
He’s already P4P goat if ya ask me.

If he became a 3 division champ there would be no denying it. It’s a tough task though.

Well when he beats Max, and moves down the GOAT talk will be immenet.
 
I´m a huge Edgar fan and he´s my in top 5 favourite fighters of all time.

Edgar will obviously be part of a small group of great fighters, but Fedor is the only GOAT. And that´s it. Finish. Period. There shouldn´t be any doubts about this anymore. He defied the laws of the universe when he went on a decade undefeated as HW.

Aldo went 10 years undefeated, Beat Faber, Cub, Hominick, Florian, Pre-USADA Mendes X2, Frankie, Korean Zombie, Lamas. Aldo is better than Fedor.

Bj was most definitely in his phone 2/3 of those fights he was a dominant let champ. Majority say he won the first fight (I agree bj won that first fight) but Frankie is so good the second fight he inproved so much it was a shut out. Bj was a animal then.

I’d give TJ the edge vs Frankie, and would not be surprised if he beat cody.

I’m sure!!!!!! He would smash marshmallow fisted Dominic cruz!!!
 
Frankie is still my LW Goat. Prime Decisionson Henderson got to him twice in fights he is severely undersized in and still has strong argument of winning both . I thought if he had beat Aldo once he has strong talks in the goat convo
 
doubt it
homie jy old to try to cut another 10 lbs to go fight dudes younger and quicker.

Dillashank is an easier fight than max. Frankie doesn't lose to guys his size or smaller.


TS, Frankie's one of my favorites, but let's get through Ortega first. Also, Edgar's wins over Sherk and Griffin are underrated.
