UFC 99 Pits Rich Franklin vs. Wnaderlei Silva

The more I think about this fight the more excited Im getting for it. I think Wandy's head cant take as many dings as it used too, and he's going to be knocked out easier. War BOTH!!

Umm how?

Rich is the more techincal striker and he also has knockout power. If Wandy can refine his striking a bit he will be more dangerous.

I don't think Rich has knockout power that Wandy has.

Rich has KOed one person.... now, although that means he does have KO power,
it isn't like he is laying guys out left and right.

Not necessarily a big fight with title shot ramifications, but it's always good to see two warriors go at it.

I think this will be a pretty good fight, ending with Franklin's hand being raised due to a 2nd round KO.

Just my two lincolns.

Later.

Two of my favorite fighters. Hate to see them matched up. Im thinking if Franklin jabs and stays away he will take it. Or Silva will knock him out .
