Re: Whats Next For Franklin?
He should also retire,... he doesn't win against big names and when he loose... he loose very badly. He just got lucky against Liddel since the Iceman is already burned out... If he needs the money he should fight maybe 2 more fights and that should be it or he will get seriously hurt

Rich is just fighting for the fans at this point. Lets see another big name at LHW. Griffin or Machida (again) would work in my book. I would prefer if the UFC didn't make Ace crush an up-and-comer's dreams.

i think griffin would be an awesome fight. however a fight with machida would be really interesting too. i kinda wanna so how machida comes back from his loss.
Re: Whats Next For Franklin?
As mentioned above he is fighting for fans now, I'm sure he wants a shot at the LHW belt but he won't beat anyone contending at the moment. I say I like Rampage, just to be real honest, cause I really do not wanna see Rampage vs. Machida.

Well i disagree. He broke his f---ing arm and didn't give a s--- then went on to KO Chuck. I have a lot of new respect for Franklin.

I think that doesn't mean anything... He was fighting against my grandmother
good card, great fights and the main event was very good, sad for the way chuck lose again but happy to see Mirko getting a great win
Rory vs Ricardo Funch
Carlos Condit vs Hathaway
Ben Rothwell vs Mirko
Yvel: well if he is not release i think they can give him Todd Duffey or some new guy to make him climb the ladder, someone like the winner of Vemola vs Madsen
Paulo Thiago vs loser of Hazelett vs Story
Kampman vs Dan Hardy
Mirko: he has some fights left in him, i hope the UFC give him another contract, if not he has a future in SF i believe he will resign and his next fight should be Ben Rothwell, i think he can win that fight
Pat Barry vs loser of Shaub vs Tuchscherer
Franklin: a long recovery since his arm was busted and them stay in the LHW division and take someone like Brandon Vera
Chuck Lidell: another long time out, he needs to understand that MMA is very strategy right now, he was very good in the round but his emotions got the best of him again, the last seconds was unnecesary to go like a mad dog letting his defense wide open, he was clearly the winner of the round, the takedown seal the deal, he was hurt too and got blood in his face, there wasnt no need to go out there and try to finish the round when he was alredy in his pocket, that was when he lost the fight since there was a good chance that franklin didnt get into the second round, well his shin is busted, he has a big glass jaw now, i hope this is not the last for him but it seems that there is nothing to do right now for him. any punch will KO and i think even Tito can give him another brutal KO so i think he needs to take another time out and work again in game plans because for what we saw in the round, he still has something left to offer but he needs to change alot of things so he can walk away from the game with a high note

Very impressive.I didnt expect a KO from him in the first round!You can say whatever you want about chuck having a glass gaw,but franklin put him away.Who do you think should be next for franklin?

Very impressive? Chuck was on his way to winning that round rather easily till he over committed and got KO'd. Fair play to Franklin, but that was FAR from impressive.
Re: Whats Next For Franklin?
I dont understand why everyone counts him out, his only REAL recent losses are to Vitor and Anderson. Yes he lost to Hendo but that could have gone either way. He has fairly recent wins over Wandy, Hammil, Okami and now Liddell. Will he go on to win the belt? Probably not but he is a top tier fighter. I say give him Griffin or Machida both are interesting. Griffin/Franklin = battle of the fan favourites. Franklin/Machida = cool rematch which both could win.
