rich franklin vs matt hughes

  1. if they were fighting at the same weight and both in their prime, who would win.

    i've only been into mma for a yr or so, so i don't know the history of a lot of the fighters.
    i know hughes is known for his wrestling, but what about franklin, what are his strengths?

    i'd want rich to beat the **** out of hughes as i really hate that guy!!!

    Hughes has always fought at 170 and Franklin at 185 to 205 so they could never fight in their primes at the same weight. Rich can go no lower then 185 so lets say Hughes and him fought when they where Champions at 185 back in 05-06 id say Franklin totally destroys him. I think Rich is too big and strong for Hughes to be able to get to the ground or hold down and Rich is far superior on his feet. Rich TKO 1 or 2.

    Franklin would be too big to take down and way too good on the feet not to knock Hughes out.
