wonder at what weight. Doesnt make much sense for Rich to go back down to MW. maybe a Franklinweight fight at 195?

More than likely (195).
Either way I'm stoked if this happens.
Gotta go with my boy Rich here.

UFC website says it will be a middleweight bout.

Not the best fight for Le to take imo, he will have a tough time with Franklin fo sure. Either way I want Cung to get the W here, hopefully he can knock Rich out.

i really hope Franklin catches him with a nate quarry type KO, but yeah should be a rather easy win for Franklin i just don't see how the "amazing kickboxing skills" of Cung Le in which he throws useless kicks that gas him and only work against bottom of list fighters wins the fight. Good way for Rich to go out with a good TKO/KO

Cung has no cardio and no chin. Rich via KO

He took a ton of shots from Wandy... He has a bit of a chin on him. Cardio however he has been shown to severally lack in the past. He was eating Wandy up until he gassed and will probably be doing the same to Rich. I love Cung but he probably gasses and losses again because of it.

This fight is Franklin's unless he gets caught. As far as it being good for the future, both for the UFC and the fans, is it better if one of these guys wins over the other? Or is this it for both? Just wondering.

Very surprised for this fight to happen,especially at 185 were Rich said he would never go to that division ever again due to Ando's 2 beatdowns,is it possible thou that rich knows something that we don't,he's now friends with AS and maybe just maybe he's told rich that he's moving up soon to face bones so rich can hav another crack at the middleweight title.
WE CAN f---ing DREAM CAN'T WE BOYS LOL!!!

If Anderson does go to 205, and ends up fighting Jones, that would be possibly, the most interesting match up in history. That would also be the ONE Anderson fight, where I would root for him. Whoever you would go for, that would be a sick, big, fight.
