Franklin Owned!!

[jerwil77]

Franklin got his ass BEAT....he left with his nose on the side of his face!!
never seen him so completely controled. Silva by KO. Sherk new lw champ, but Florian is oe tough mutha....he used his elbow to cut sherk and he bled the entire time....went all 5 rounds. Sherk dominated but Ken-Flo can take a beating like nobody....seemed Kenny had a chance to win somehow. Every fighter I picked to win lost!! Every one of them! Even Kongo did nothing against a unexperienced wrestler...SHerk Flo was the best fight by far

[J.S.N.]

yeah man silva kneed his nose so bad you could tell the thing wante to break through his skin like the crown of an infant's head peeking through a dialted vagina.

[sweehustletd]

Man seeing ace get man handled was worth every penny expect a rematch soon but imo gonna be the same results. Sherk did good as well that was the best fight. Kongo looked like crapo imo

[NOREGRETS]

Franklin didn't have a chance with those knees. Florian/Sherk was the best fight, it will be a good rematch.

[Knockout_Power]

WOW, I have never seen anything like that before. A champion who is so dominating in his division get worked like that. It wasen't like a lucky punch or haymaker landed, this was purely a brutal beating. Wish Franklin all the best in recovery and I cant wait to see a rematch.

Happy that Sherk won, but I thought he should not have let it go the distance. I disliked Florian, but he can protect and those elbows are going to become legendary....

[$$TML 4 LIFE$$]

Franklin Got Destroyed!!! WOW i feel a lil bad 4 him but i was goin 4 anderson all the way. Silvas Clinch is the greatest thing ive ever seen, Bring on Swick next and my god is he gonna get destroyed!!!!

[sweehustletd]

I knew it was over as soon as i saw franklins face after a few knees in the clinch. For a secound i thought he was going to give up he looked like he couldnt take the pain but like the ex champ he is he stuck out an got rocked

[jerwil77]

Kenny got blades for elbows...he had a tiny little distance to land those 2 elbows and Sherk was pouring blood like crazy...Sherk landed heavy hard elbows and didn't even put a dent in kenny's skin....and that powerbomb that had Kenny landing right on his head would have knocked out most people, didn't even phase him. Kenny has never been KO'd or even rocked in a fight or practice. The dude got a hard head. LOL did you see Ken-Flo's Raiden from mortal kombat outfit.....thought he was gunna blast sherk with lightning bolts

[Knockout_Power]

heh, for sure, Raiden all the way... what would have been sweet was if Florian didnt get a hold of the fence and Sherk took him for a 20 foot power bomb Hughes style.

[sweehustletd]

I was so pissed when i saw kenny grab the fence right before he got slammed i know it was a smart move but also a pussy one imo

That's what that outfit was. I though he just came from the rice patties.

[J.S.N.]

yeah florian opened a cut but c'mon now herk dominated the living **** out of him. 5 rounds and all florian did was open a cut at the hairline and land one solid mid kick. that was 25 minutes of pure pwnage florian needs to up his game a little before he can get anothr shot.

[pepperoni]

My lord Franklin got embarassed. He thought he could over power Silva in the clinch, but with the Muay Thai training clearly Silva was too much. Cannot wait to see Silva fight some more.

[jerwil77]

If you got a ball of muscle lifting you above his head, normal reaction is to grab for anyhing to lessen the fall. not a pussy move, you'd do the same

[jerwil77]

lol stand randy calling it the "mooey thia" clinch

[pepperoni]

a lil off topic... but who likes the Leafs anyway?

Very true, but what beats the hell out of me is how Sherk can go the distance with the likes of Hughes or St Pierre and not be able to finish the deal on florian. Does Flo really have a head of steal or is there a bit of force missing from Sherk now that he's down many lbs?

Either way, I wonder who's next? Yves Edwards maybe?...

[sweehustletd]

The whole fight the ref warned him about grabbing the fence. I can believe a reaction to grab the fence but not hold on for dear life

sherk tends to finish via submission as opposed to TKO/KO, but those two are both so good at sub's that's not gonna happen unless one of them really effs up or gets hurt by the other. it's just a case of styles making matches.

I have trained with sean and seen him at some local shows I teared up watching him win such a great guy!

I cant think of many sports where people can talk about the atheletes or relate to them on a personal/semi-personal level. This is why it has such spectacle. Thats cool that he's such a good guy. Amazing how such good people can be in such a violent sport and other more common household sports (ie.. hockey, baseball, basketball) can produce the most arrogent self indulgent pricks around.

[Hunter]

also kenny was trying to get some genki like charisma but he is just a flamer. I despise kenny florian

[J.S.N.]

yeah i've noticed a strong inverse relationship between the pussiness of a sport and the level of assholery it produces, basketball being the primest of examples.

[Panzerfaust]

Good fights..don't disrespect Florian, that little bastard stepped up big time and made it one hell of a fight and definately made Sherk work for it. Who woulda thought that? Not me.

Silva on the other hand, i knew would be to much in the striking department and figured Rich would have to rely on his wrestling but Silva gave him no ****ing chance and i dare say Franklin's body is torn up, looked like he ate a knee to the liver and then one dead on the chin and then another on the button.

Once again, Anderson showed how scary his Muay Thai is.

Sean has always wished me good luck and greg nelson has helped my corner out. I plan on transferring to metro state to finish college and train with sean. I always work with sean over christmas he is just a great guy. I want to see sean vs spencer fisher be a great fight

U are right just backing up sean cause he has always been a stand up guy with me.

[Panzerfaust]

Sherk is a class act, always has been i agree but you gotta be shocked how Florian stepped up, for god's sake i thought he would get steam rolled.

Well no way yves edwards will be next cause he lost his last 2 fights. He got knocked out by mark homnick i believe, and his last fight he got annihilated by Joe stevenson....im guessin if Joe wins his upcomin fight at ufc 65 against Dokonjonosuke Mishima hell be the next opponent 4 sean sherk

[Hunter]

I think if spencer fisher wins his next fight he will get the shot but I see sean taking that one spencer has good powerful hands but sean has the faster hands and probably the edge in subs if not equal and I would say much better wrestler

[Knockout_Power]

Agreed, Sherk is like a wolverine inside of 5'. He shoots to bowl you over, not just grab the legs and lift. Once you hit the ground he has some ultra fast movements to get positioning. Thumbs up to Flo for slowing this down some, but not many will be able to do the same.

[Hunter]

Kenny showed heart and alot of it. I was impressed with his heart. He just has some growing up as a fighter and he deffiantly showed heart and determination

[Panzerfaust]

Not to mention this was Sherk's first fight at 155lbs, i know he practiced making the weight but until you get in their and fight, there is still a question mark there. Now that he has fought at 155lbs and is now champion, i am sure he will make the proper adjustments to keep himself in peak condition.

[Quil]

Silva's clinch was phenomenal...I never thought he would own Franklin that quickly.

Sherk was just too strong for Kenflo. Going to be some good fights coming up at 155 though. BJ Penn anyone?

[J.S.N.]

spencer fisher will get eaten alive by sherk. hell lauzon took him down like 3 times in 3 minutes.

[sonar1234]

I actually feel sorry for Rich Franklin, he got owned just like that, but Anderson Silva is sooooo amazing.

[rar1015]

Yeah i couldnt believe how Florian lasted through that fight. He gave sherk a nice cut too. I give that guy a lot of credit, he showed a ton of heart in that fight.

I honestly didnt know what to expect in the Franklin and Silva fight. Im a little upset that Franklin got beat down so bad but thats how it goes sometimes. Silva is one tough SOB and he is going to dominate the ufc middleweight division IMO.

[QuieTSToRM33]

Wow !

[Tedbear981]

Franklin kind of reminded me of Rampage in Wandys Clinch.....no way out!, I give it up to Rich Franklin though, a real class act as champion and I hope he recovers soon.

[D-Bo Dre]

My boy Rich got it handed to him! I bet his nose was whistling like Jim Carey in "Me myself and Irene" That Tai clinch was incredible! Hopefully it will be a better rematch.

[zimmy]

yah...he really showed that he didn't train how to get out of the muay thai clinch. But i spose not many "mma" fighters do.

bout the sherk fight... florian did a great job surviving. But i swear for a black belt...that was the weakest half guard i have ever seen.
