You'd think that Anderson had lost the first fight, he looked pretty determined as he walked right up to Franklin's nose.
Maybe the nose to nose was a 'hey, remember me?' psychological play on Anderson's part. The up-close face-to-face seemed pretty intense and was only dissolved by Franklin's surprisingly full embace of Anderson - he even leaned his head in on Anderson's shoulder. Awwww!
To bad one's getting butchered tomorrow.

Yea, I like Vera, I allways have sense I first seen him fight, seems like a few people on here dont like him becuz of his attitude...But I like him all around and think he has a pretty good chance of winning this fight, even though alot on here say no...

Actually i felt it in my sportsmanship heart when Franklin gestured to the crewd not to boo Anderson Silva. That was actually touching.

Last I heard Burkman and Arrianie were dating, for serious.

Wow...He's not that bad. Actually, I think he's a very good fighter who just happened to have a horribly boring one. (two if you count Monson) Before Sylvia v. Arlovski III, all of his other fights were fairly entertaining.
Look at his record... He's only had 5 decisions out of 26 fights. Beyond that, their mostly knockouts. The guy is good he's just had one too many boring fights in the "what have you done for me lately" world of MMA.

i really dont have anything against Sylvia EXEPT after his loss to Mir when he took away all the joy from Mirs when he won the HW title by not eepting his loss and ... when Mir aprotched him saying " well fight again " and Sylvia replied... no.. we fight now..... very lame

That was an awesome line. My respect for Tim Sylvia increased dramatically after that night.
