Franklin has A LOT to work for if he is going to suprise Silva. Silva is, in every sense of the word, a warrior. His game is spot on. Even though he's lost a couple in PRIDE, he always seemed to improve after each fight, win or lose. I like Franklin, he's a good guy, but just on the higher end of average fighters or on the lower end of the exceptional fighters. Silva is creating his own class and you KNOW he doesn't stop until he's out.
I was unsure about him before the Marquardt fight, but not anymore.

It was said before the Anderson/Nate fight that if Anderson wins he'll fight Rich in Cincy, and if Nate wins it'll be in Denver. I live in West Virginia so I'm just 4 hours away. I'm grabbing some tickets as soon as they book the arena lol

Have you watched any of Silva's last 3 fights??? Rich is a good fighter but Silva is on another planet right now. I just don't see rich lasting past the first again. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I will be.

Last 4 UFC Fights (the only 4) of Anderson Silva
Victory of Chris "Crappler" Leben Knockout (whats new?) Victory over Rich Franklin via Knockout (Not the same Rich) Victory Over Travis "Cut Can't Wait" Lutter via Submission due to Strikes Victory Over Nate "Not So Great" Marquardt via Knockout.
Look at that list, Lutter could not beat him because he gassed and could not make weight so he was tired I gaurentee you that if Lutter came in at the weight during the weigh ins he would have won that fight against Silva.
Franklin was not the same fighter, he looked tired and odd against Silva, but to give credit where credit is due, Silva knocked out Franklin with that Clinch.
Chris Leben is a joke in the UFC.
Nate Marquardt is not as good as everyone hypes him up to be, yes I was one of the one who voted for him to win, but Nate is not that great.
Franklin will win. I just don;t see Silva being that untouchable cloud everybody thinks he is.
