martin's standup is not good enough to avoid getting brutally mauled and ko'd by franklin, and franklin has a better ground game.
franklin is bigger,stronger,more talented, better at everything,more experience,mroe pressure to win.
dont see how he'd lose.
You clearly did not watch the highlight video I posted. He fights bigger guys all the time and he rarely loses. His standup is plenty good enough to hang with Franklin without getting "brutally mauled". Franklin has better ground and pound but he does NOT have a better submission game. He has a bit more experience, yea...more pressure to win, for sure....better at everything? No. Martin would murder Franklin in a Muay Thai match.
franklin by KO or TKO round one. kampmann sucked on the feet against mcfedries. franklin will outclass him on his feet, and wont get taken down. franklin is just MUCH BIGGER than kampmann

Holy shit this is going to be a DAMN good fight. It's too hard to pick a winner, both guys are well rounded, Franklin has the edge of Martin in certain things and visa versa, this is going to be a war.
I always said Martin Kampmann would have the best chance at defeating Anderson Silva, now if he beats Franklin there's no doubt he'll get a title shot.
Go Martin!

Everytime me and you agree on a fighter it turns out we are always right. We were right about Lutter, we were right about Guillard, and we're prolly right about Kampmann too.
Well looks like you 2 are gonna be wrong this time
Lol I think Rich will pull this off. This is exactly like the Mcdonald/Franklin fight and everyone was saying Mcdonald has a chance he can outstrike rich, etc.etc.,but look what happened he got his ass handed to him. This will be an interesting fight and a great one also. Both guys are EXTREMELY resepctful fighters and love to fight so im sure we will see alot of respect out there.
LOL, do some research man. Jesus. And yes Franklin has KO power when he hits the button, so does everyone else. But how about I ask Loiseau or Jmac instead?
I posted a link earlier of Kampmann highlights. Look at it. Watch it. Kampmann is a Muay Thai specialist moron. That's why he has better Muay Thai. Franklin is not a Muay Thai specialist. And Kampmann is also a submission wrestler, and a very very good one. Again, watch the damn video. If you watched it and still aren't convinced he is better at those 2 things, then get the hell off Rich's nuts already. I never said Franklin sucked nor did I say Kampmann would win and I sure as hell didn't say Kampmann was a better overall fighter.
Are any of those guys in that video as good as Franklin or even close to as good as Franklin you idiot. If I'm wrestling my sister i will look like the best sub specialist on planet earth. And my Muy thai would be strait out of a HOllywood blockbuster. Idiot. Not only is Kampmann not a better overall fighter he isn't better in any facet of the game. I'm not on Rich's Nuts i just know he will knock Kampmann the hell out in the first round. And that is what I'm saying. I wouldn't be saying this if he was fighting Anderson or Nate Marquardt I just know Kampmann is going to get his ass knocked off. and please do ask the crow and Jmac if he has KO power. They would tell you hell yea. Jmac was couldn't walk after the second round ended. Franklin broke his hand against the crow. And the crow came out of that fight looking like friggin E.T. Your just an idiot.
Im excited for this fight. I think it could definitely go either way but I don't see Franklin losing it. Hopefully Kampmann puts up a good fight and gets some good fights after this (loser of Swick/Okami?)
It seems Woudluvetofightu and I are the only intelligent people on this forum.. No, but most of u guys trust to much in the american Franklin and too little in the young Dane.
Kampmann is as it has been said a GREAT striker, he has pinpoint accuracy with his strikes, he has great knees, kicks and as mentioned extremely precise punches.
He is muay thai/kickboxing champion so he was trained to beat his opponents over several rounds, that is why he starts slow in his fights like in Leites and Mcfedries fight.
I know that Mcfedries was getting the better of Kampmann but he wasnt hurt and I actually think that if the fight had gone to round 2 Kampmann would begin to dominate the striking exactly like he did against Leites.
I think that this fight will go to decision, I dont even imagine Franklin KO'ing Kampmann at all. And i'll bet any member on this forum
