Report: Max Holloway vs. Frankie Edgar Fight Agreed to for UFC 240 in Edmonton

Featherweight champion Max Holloway will reportedly be in action again on July 27.

On Monday, Brett Okamoto of ESPN reported Holloway reached a verbal agreement to fight Franke Edgar at UFC 240 on July 27 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Okamoto added he doesn't believe this development means Alexander Volkanovski is "losing his place in line" to fight Holloway. Rather, he noted a quick turnaround for Holloway could be in play if he defeats Edgar because the featherweight champion "wants to be very active this year."
