Just as we thought, Rich will probably be dwarfed by Hamill (relative terms, of course). I don't know how he wins this one.

Becouse his striking and jits are on a whole other level to Matts.

Was that mayhem with chonan? Weigh ins always get me stoked for events, i wasnt really thinking about it to much but now i cant wait!

yes-- mayhem and chonan have been training together for a while now.

and i believe if hammil can keep franklin on his back using his superior wrestling i think he can take a decision.

just came back from this.... very lame when I heard "our first PPV fight... Matt Brown..."


Rogan made a quick announcement of the Karo injury and left, no words from Dana.... that sucked. Also that Edith was not there

Cole Miller, Florian, Soko and Carwin were some of the fighters around, and Matt Hammill's girlfriend was with the audience, she actually looked better than in the Countdown....

I thought the same thing. Maybe his hamstring affected his training. He didn't look good. If this fight goes deep, he could have a potential problem.

Lambert looks great at 185, you could tell he wasn't having to cut any weight at 205. Plus Franklin looks huge at 205.

Good to see Rich not look like he just escaped a concentration camp. Looking foreward to see how this effects him.

Rich was pretty big. I don't think size is going to play a major difference. Rich has wrestled with this guy before. He knows that Matt's a strong guy. He's going to squash the Matt Hammil hype train before it gets out of the gate.
