Rich's corner ppl didnt do the job. HE really thought he had the advantage in the clinch...which just killed me. He is MUCH MUCH better than his showing vs Silva. He'll come back, not necessarily to beat Silva but atleast give him a run for his money. He is and has always been an A-level fighter and world class, I dont see how anyone can truthfully dispute that without being ignorant or being the greatest bandwagon hopper of all time.

Mr. Bungle

You know why Rich looked sick on his way to the octagon the night he fought Silva? Because he knew he was about to get the everlovin shit knocked out of him. He isn't completely stupid, he knew the calibre of fighter he was used to competing with was nowhere near Anderson Silva. He knew that he had been the UFCs protected little all american poster boy for as long as it was possible and his time was up.

and he was right




Just face it, fight fans who watch UFC exclusively dont know very much about MMA. That's why we get complete morons believing ridiculous things like Rich Franklin is a world class fighter or that a B-level bum like Tito Ortiz is gods gift to MMA. You just believe whatever the latest commercial tells you to believe. You're all sheep...weak minded gullible sheep. I pity you...really I do.

Buddy, I for example, watch more Pride than UFC and I am what most would consider a "Pride" nuthugger. Nonetheless, Rich is a world class 185. Not the best 185 in the world but definitely world class (Filho, Hendo, Kang, Silva, Lindland, Misaki and RICH). At any given time, Rich can beat a guy like Lindland, Kang or anyone else on the list for that matter. Get over it...

Mr bunghole got punked from the brownpimp for flaming.


Ha Ha flaming bunghole retard.

TYKIDD

I garuntee that Bungle has been sending love notes to Franklin for years. Franklin has never written back and Bungle is just in a jealous rage and is striking back using his only weapon. "THE FORUM"

Mr. Bungle

Oh boy, yeah I was really "punked" by him. He really let me have it with his oh so witty and brilliant retort.

Puh-leeze...I humiliate you all intellectually at will and if we ever met in person I would humiliate physically too. Your ignorance of MMA is actually quite hilarious you really should just go back to watching WWE because you're not capable of understanding that hype and cakewalk stepping stone fights don't make a great fighter. It's not your fault really, you're just typical ignorant americans who get all slack jawed and bamboozled by bright lights and loud music.

TYKIDD

Your why canadians get that sissy reputation. Oh and Rich is soon to be 2-0 against your canadian competition. One win coming by turning the crow into E.T.'s look alike and second win will be coming by vicious 1st Round K.O. of Macdonald.

Oh by the way, every one who writes about MMA, who is in MMA, Or who has ever fought or trained with Rich Franklin thinks he is an elite fighter. Your some jealous retard with a grudge against Americans.

Mr. Bungle

Yeah I do hate americans along with 99% of everyone else on the planet. I'd think you all would be used to it by now.


Anyway...that's irrelevant. The point is that Rich Franklin will never beat Anderson Silva. You people can make all the excuses you like for him but it will never happen. He just isn't that good.

Yet reading your posts, you'd never know it.
