Wow, that was impressive. Not taking anything away from Silva, because that was pure domination, but I still felt that was a bad fight for Franklin to take after the long layoff. However, if you can't get out of the clinch, then I don't think much could have helped.
When you got the belt, you don't get any "easy" fights
It would have been unfair to Silva, as the #1 contender, to give someone who wasn't the #1 contender a title fight because Rich had been off for a while.
I saw that on the weekend....I feel bad for rich he took a massive beating.
you can sure as hell that Silva trained with Wanderlie and those chute box guys.
