I believe that this fight could go down. Why? I believe Leben is the lead contender for Franklin's championship belt right now. He has suposedly improved his ground game, and he is still that 1 hit miracle type of guy. He has extremely powerful punches. His striking is top-notch. So, I think he is a top contender to fight Franklin. But, if he fights Franklin, I think Rich will most likely force the fight on to the ground and submit him.

Its kinda hard to take this thread seriously, Leben is a good fighter and he is very talented but he does not have a track record that would justify a title shot. I think he was the only fighter that got beat twice on TUF1 and his loss to Silva was a clue as to what would happen if he faced Franklin.
