what do you bros think of Ryoto Machida? He beat Stephan Bonner, Rich Franklin and BJ Penn? I know he's K1 MMA but have only seen 1 of his fights(penn)

Franklin just walked right into a left hand.......he did the same shit earlier in the fight that put him on his ass. I'm wondering what type of chin he has. People have said his chin aint all that great. Good find. You can watch him destroy Bonnar also on google or youtube.com

I am a big PRIDE Groupie as you can tell by my posts but I do watch UFC because I am big fan of MMA and I would have to say Rich Franklin is my Favorite UFC fighter. I just like that he is really well rounded, good strikes, and is an all around respectful nice guy. I do wonder about his chin but he's taken some good shots and kept going. I just hope he beats the Crow...

He has taken some good shots but the right hand that dropped him from tanner really messed him up. He thought it was the first round when he went to his corner in the 4th round. He is a great fighter but I do think he has a suspect chin. Not a metzger chin but not the best chin either.

I went to AC and saw the Tanner Franklin fight, Tanner dropped him with a so so shot, not a bomb, cant believe Tanner didnt make more of that opportunity.
