    What's next for him?
    I mean, he could beat everyone in MW aside of Silva even If I think Patrick Cote stand a good chance vs Franklin..
    Maybe we could see a 3rd Silva vs Franklin in the future, but not now..
    Franklin vs Henderson??
    Do you think Franklin could do well vs the LHW crew???
    He is one of my favorite fighter! I rate him as great..He only lost to 2 mens, and Silva just have his number and thats no shame at all because Silva ain't ****..

    Liddell vs Franklin would interrest me for sure..or even Rampage vs Franklin could be great!!

    Hes in a very strange spot right now. Id like it if Silva beats Okami then moves up to 205 and we see Henderson-Franklin for the belt. Seeing Henderson fight Franklin while hes lost 2 in a row would really **** me off and ruin the huge value of this fight.

    All three would murder Kendall Grove. He's got to be one of the worst TUF winners.

    Yup he may just be you know Sanchez,Griffin,Stevenson,Evans,Bisping,Serra,Lutter,Diaz,Danzig are IMO all better then him. Groves been brutally KOed by Rivera and Cote who are solid fighters but just gate keepers. Evan Tanner may have looked like **** last time out but he was rusty vs a elite Middleweight. Tanner at his best raped Terrell,Lawler,Baroni ETC hes going to end Groves UFC run and violently. WAR TANNER :happy

    Henderson right hand would punch a whole inside Groves head if not send it all the way back to Big Bear and his training camp.

    Franklin needs to move to any division where Anderson isn't going to be. If Silva moves up, Franklin should move back. So long as he's in the same weight as Silva, nobody will bother with him. He needs to have a title to chase where people give a crap about it.
