The punishment his body's been through, especially during his PRIDE days must be taking their toll in one way or another. I think he will probably fight a few more& then focus on on his gym, I hope.
I appreciate everything he has given to the sport, every drop of blood.
UFC115 may see Rich Franklin pitted against Chuck Liddell....
I'm a fan of Franklin, his training regime is enough to make a seasoned athlete puke! To think he used to go to school ( he was a Math teacher for those who didn't know ) with a blackeye after a night's fight, that would've been a sight.
