Frankie wouldn't be able to handle Max on the feet for long. Hell, i respect the crap outta Frankie, but I dont think he can handle most elite level strikers on the feet for long. Comes down to; can Frankie take him down and keep him down? Can his wrestling/grappling break Max?

I'm fairly confident Frankie could do what he did to Yair and Oliveria.... Get the takedown and stifle with top control and GNP.
It feels like forever ago, but McGregor was able to take Holloway down more than once with a bum knee. Sure Holloway has gotten tremendously better..... but Frankie's TDs are going to be a hell of a lot harder to avoid than McGregor's.
Max isnt easy to take down and hes a pressure fighter...all the luck to Frankie but im banking on him dropping his 3rd FW title shot.
Holloway vs Swanson is the fight I want to see.

@Gallbladder
There's a very low likelihood that Swanson is getting a title fight over Frankie.... considering he's beat middle tier fighters and has already lost to Holloway.
Frankie's won 6 out of his last 7 against top 10 talent each time out.

Yeah most likely, but I just want entertainment...and I dont like Edgar at all. Both fights will happen, and Max will beat them both.

Max finished Aldo...Aldo beat Frankie twice, lets see it.

Different fights.
Holloway will engage.
And when he does Frankie will take him down.
Every time.

But no times he was ever ko'd like you initially said.
And this fight won't stay standing long enough for Max to do that to Edgar.
