well when it comes to business he can simply open up a school as the head instructor that way he doesn't need to worry about paperwork and teaching women's classes. i'd think that's a great way to go for him. he's a HUGE name and having his own gym (under a financier) would be a great financial move.

He'll have his own redneck Hunting Show.

damn...i remember watching Franklin fight when everyone thought he was the shit, before Anderson came along. Now this is possibly his last contract. Cant wait to see his upcoming fights.

and who could ever go back to teaching match after having gone through and been what Rich Franklin has.

I think Rich is realizing that there's really no place for him left in the UFC, it would be like working a job that you know there is no chance for advancement at. While he is a great fighter and a great draw you have to think about personal goals, and being a PPV savior might not be what he wants out of his career. Like i said most of us wouldn't stay at a job we knew we had no advancement at.
