Give Frankie the shot because it was his originally and it times out well with Max's last fight and have Ortega ready as a backup if he pulls out again.
I almost forgot that testosterone city popped , I was leaning towards him fighting for the title mainly because Frankie has had so many title shots already I would like to see other guys get a shot but the fact Brian has popped before and that Frankie isn't getting any younger I say let them fight .Edgar is 7-1 in his last 8 fights. Only lost to Aldo in the UFC 200.
Ortega is 6-0 all finishes. But he popped for roids, so....
How do you guys say "fuck cheaters" ?
Give it to Edgar, my man.
Exactly. Ortega said himself that he´ll wait.I almost forgot that testosterone city popped , I was leaning towards him fighting for the title mainly because Frankie has had so many title shots already I would like to see other guys get a shot but the fact Brian has popped before and that Frankie isn't getting any younger I say let them fight .
I agree he is next.Fuckin right Frankie is next
Ortega should be fighting the guy that KO Lamas for the winner of Holloway vs Edgar
I like Frankie but he does only have two wins over #8 and #9 since his last title shot. Given the number of title shots Frankie has gotten over the years I think giving someone new a shot is fair. Especially since if Edgar beats Holloway we end up with a rock, paper, scissors of Edgar, Holloway and Aldo which will clog up 145 for years. Let Ortega get the shot and put Edgar and Chan Sung Jung together, that should be fun although Edgar wins easily IMO.
I hear this but I think his last 2 wins aren't the only thing to go on here.
He has never lost to anyone at 145 not named Aldo.
His shot was already booked before the injury.
He is probably the only one @145 that can beat Max.
If Frankie wins you don't have to worry about Aldo beating him again.
The UFC isn't going to let Aldo near a title shot without winning at least a fight or 2 and i don't think Aldo has another run in him.
Matter of fact if Frankie wins and it's a good fight(which I'm sure it will be) then it's almost guaranteed there will be a rematch with Max anyway.
I totally agree, Edgar have rightfully earned his shot, also Max have beaten everybody but him, also not even Edgar got a shot by beating Cub lolThis is the correct scenario.
Dude is asking for the Ortega fight already.
And lol @ people pissed about Frankie getting another title shot.
He earns his shots. Deal with it.
Frankie is a legend in his own time.
Edgar is going to beat Max I hear people saying here? Are you guys drinking the cool-Aid or do you jut not watch MMA?
I hear that. I almost always prefer new blood over a rematch.That's fair, I'm not totally against Frankie getting a shot. I really don't think Holloway deserves an immediate re-match if Frankie wins though, he'd only have one defense and I hate that immediate rematch is almost the default position whenever a champ loses his belt.
I hear that. I almost always prefer new blood over a rematch.
Max doesn't have a long title run bit he does have a long winning streak.
That combined with the fact that it will be a fun fight i think probably gets Max a rematch.
But even if he didn't I think that Emmet kid or Ortega could get the next shot.
I'd really like to see that fight. Ortega has a lot of hype behind him but I think Emmet is the spoiler here.
