    They're both guys in their 30s who have headlined probably a couple of dozen cards between them. They've fought before. They're both professionals and Rich in particular is known as a nice guy. I like that they shared a laugh in this situation.

    And when they got into the cage, they sure as hell didn't hold back because of the respect they have for each other.

    That's how it used to be in PRIDE. Shame Franklin never fought there... Good to see Wand mellowing though. If that was 10 years ago he'd have torn Franklin a new one. (Which is probably pretty hard to do as he's such a darn nice guy! :) )

    :huh That's how it used to be in Pride yet in a following comment you then say Wandy 10yrs ago would have torn Franklin a new one :think

    Wasn't Wandy in Pride 10yrs ago :hey
     
  12. Good video. Backstage it's not wwe. Obviously they want their space pre fight, but fighting is sport and entertainment business. Fighters arn't thugs or perceived as animals, they're sportsman first and business men with mutual respect.

    Compare this to the back stage interactions of Guida and Maynard after their fight.
