Really? Strange I've never seen Jermain Taylor throw the types of elbows, kicks & knees that Franklin does. Standing or from ground positions.
I wont burst your bubble anymore.
You're not bursting my bubble at all. I grew up around boxing. My father was a boxer and all that was on TV until the time I was 15 was boxing. Unfortunately it takes more than fast hands and fancy footwork to be successful in MMA, and it would take someone that is a true fan/student of both boxing and MMA to understand that.
There isn't a doubt in my mind that if Rich Franklin were to stand in the middle of the ring and trade blows with Jermaine Taylor that it would be at best a 30 second fight, but I'm pretty confident that wouldn't be Franklin's gameplan...

That's what I'm talkin about. Baroni would give Franklin a tough time. He's gotten way better during his time in PRIDE.
You guys kill me, Taylor is a 160lb god, Franklin is a third rate athlete. No contest, Taylor would win easily.Just stop. I mean really. You're ridiculous. Wow.
Franklin should fight this sucky guy. I mean most UFC fan agree that Tim Sylvia will beat him anyways...

Baroni did get alot better. IMO Frank would still take him along with Rich Franklin.

Looks like my question just got answered. Rich Franklin vs. Anderson Silva @ UFC 64 10/14/06. Gonna be a slugfest.

I saw Rich Franklin fight tonight, I have also watched him fight 2 other times. I have to say he would get owned by any top 15 boxer over 160lbs easily. Rich Franklin is a bum. This guy has 0 ground game and his striking skills are a joke.

Which fights?
Without a doubt, Franklin's toughest test. Silva is a tall dude, with killer strikes. Seems like a bad matchup for "Ace" IMO. We shall see....

Which fights did you watch?
Yeah, he's only the middleweight champ of the world in the UFC. Who are you Mickey from Rocky. Get a life.

Franklin is the champ of the Bums....so what. Taylor is a world class athlete and the 2000 Olympic Bronze medalist and the undefeated undisputed Middle weight champ of the world. Again Franklin is a Bum.

He beat an over the hill Hopkins twice (controversially), couldn't beat his first real test in Winky and is now rumored to be fighting Sergio Mora from reality TV.

Again, which Franklin fights did you see??
Hopkins is God and I thought he won at least one of the fights, I also thought Winky did enough top win. But Taylor would fair better against a MMA guy than Winky or Hopkins would......styles make fights.
Three good ones
He hasn't watched any. He's an old fuck that loves boxing.

Looks like you did some searching on Youtube because that fight has never been aired on TV. It was at the Inoki Bom-Ba-Ye 3 years ago
. And Machida fights at 205 . That was his only loss. And 1 loss in MMA is phenomenal considering most of the top fighters have 3, 4 & some even 10+ losses.
Tanner is out of the game for a bit.....he kinda went off the deep end.
Horn is his best mate and both have said they wont fight the other.
Grove just won his comp, and next he gets a title shot? I think not.
Swick is decent, but he needs to fight sme top comp (ala Silva) before getting in for the belt IMO.
Baroni will be fighting in PRIDE for awhile.
Leben won a fight recently, after being completely bitched by Silva...and his his comeback fight he fought exactly the same way he did when he fought Silva. For that reason, it would be fun to see him fighting for the belt, but when Rich tends to get injured a lot this match up needs to be more meaningful that a quick and thorough ass kicking of his opponent like when he fought and broke the nose of whatisface.
Anderson Silva is the challenger.
Saw it on the net son......time for you to join the 21 centuryLooks like you did some searching on Youtube because that fight has never been aired on TV. It was at the Inoki Bom-Ba-Ye 3 years ago
The other two were on PPV, plus I saw him fight another time on PPV but dont remember who. Nice try son but your boy sucks ass as much as your posts do.
he sux ass because he fought an extremely good fight a weightclass above his own? Almost every boxers record is padded with 90% bums so lets not get on with the who sux ass topic.....
Same with MMA, most suck so the records of the "champs"
are padded with bums.Similar threads
