Former UFC Lightweight champ Frankie Edgar gets a shot at Jose Aldo's Featherweight title at UFC 156 early next year. His trainer is claiming that if Edgar wins at 145lbs he'll cut down to 135lbs and go after the UFC Bantamweight title too.

And according to his trainer, Edgar has title ambitions in more than just the two divisions. Here's what Edgar's head trainer Mark Henry told MMA Weekly Radio (transcribed by MMA Mania):

"He is one of the best true pound-for-pound fighters that isn't afraid to go up in weight classes. He'll fight anybody anytime. Two weight classes up, one weight class up. For me, I'd love for him to take a shot, I mean, we definitely have to worry about Jose now, it's the only thing, that's our thing right now. But, I think he can be the first guy with three belts you know? I think if it's for history, I think if Frankie beats Jose, I think it's hard to deny that he is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world if he won three.

I think you can't deny him. I mean, Anderson (Silva) is so close to Jon Jones' weight, what are they, ten pounds difference? Frankie's fought guys that are way heavier than him. If Frankie was to go for two belts, three belts, I don't know how you can deny him. It's something special. You don't see something like that, I mean, nobody's ever done it and weight wise it could be done. So, of course, it's going to be in the conversation, something to throw around and talk about. Especially (for) greatness, you know? You can do something that nobody's done and make history, it's something you definitely talk about."

If anyone has the frame and heart to do so, it's Frankie Edgar.

Why does he try winning keeping one before sounding like Brandon Vera. Only Aldo Andy or GSP should say things like that.

Jones can't hold two titles at once. He'd need to fully commit to heavyweight if he wants to take that belt.
