From his facial rearrangement that Anderson gave him. I remember him starting to do commercials and modeling gigs. Pretty sure he was about to STAR in movies. Not the cute UFC fighter anymore now is he? So how many contracts went out the door when he got the nose job and permanent black/yellow eye? My guess in the long run excess of 5 mil

I remember in the UFC special on CNBC in 2009, Franklin was doing small indy movies before his first Wanderlai fight in Germany so this was well after the Anderson fight so i don't think its stopped him

Normally, I would draw a distinction between money lost and revenue not realized, but since that's out the window:
Franklin lost billions of dollars. If it weren't for his early success in MMA, he would have gotten in on the ground floor of the dot.com boom and made out like a bandit when he sold his share options.

Did he get a hair transplant or something coz the last time I seen him he had a Kevin Spacey hairline..

Thought I was the only one that noticed that. Maybe he is going to be the newest Bosley Hair Replacement spokesman. That could help make up for some of the missed movie revenue.
I would imagine the PPV cut he gets every time he fights more than makes up for starring in 20 films with that hispanic guy who makes crappy MMA films.

I think that movie clip shows how untrue that is. I do agree that he is much uglier due to Anderson Silva, but he wasn't Brad Pitt beforehand anyway.

all the girls I've ever watched MMA with were in LOVE with Rich, not so much anymore. But if theres someone you fancied all along I'd like to hear it.
