New Rich Franklin interview

http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=Mult...etail&gid=4555

I thought Rich Franklin came off as a class act, he's never arrogant, sees a fight as a fight, not demanding for a title rematch, ambitious but not overambitious by making too many goals and very funny guy too.

I want him to be get the belt back as he definetely was not able to showcase his talents against silva. He's honestly one of the best all around mma fighters and he didnt even have the training and facilities that other mma fighters had.

Yeah Franklin is good but as long as he contends to keep the fighting standing, he will NEVER beat Silva. The guy needs to practice some ground skills.

He was actually holding his own, if not winning, when fighting Silva at a distance. It was when they got into the clinch that he got beat up really badly.

Franklin looked good on his feet until he got in the clinch w/ Silva.

That's what I always said. A minute and a half of trading punches with neither guy looking hurt isn't that bad. He just needs to find a way to avoid the clinch and keep his distance until he has an opening.
