I guess I'll change my SN to formerfranklinfan. One could use the argument that all of his losses are against great fighters but I have a hard time seeing him being more than a gatekeeper at this point.

Maybe I'll make Uriah Faber my next favorite fighter. Before I do that, I should probably find out whether or not his hands are permanantly mess up.

How can you just change fav fighters like that? Even though Hughes is past his prime and got wrecked by GSP twice he is still my fav. I didn't like Nog any less after he got smashed by Mir...same goes for Forrest after Anderson and Dan and Anderson and Rich after Anderson (hmmm....I see a trend)

Farmer hit the nail on the head! My boy can't even win a Championship, but that doesn't make me like Kenny any less.

I'm not going to change my favorite fighter. I just needed to vent a little bit. But my second favorite is a more close second now.

At some point your going to have a new favorite fighter. I mean who keeps a fighter as their fav long after they are relevant. Not to say Franklin is not relevant, but he prob never sees a title fight again.

My favorite is always changing. Spider's the guy right now.

Dude don't jump off of Franklin's bandwagon just because he lost....

I have been a fan of the Rua Bros for years and even though they looked down right terrible in some points of their careers , I am still and always will be a fan of them.

I feel ya franklinfan, it sucks balls when your guy isn't performing well. Franklin has had a good career and he has a lot of good fights left in him even though he may never wear a belt again.

GSP is my favorite, I remember when I went to the show in Houston, I was so pumped to see GSP whoop Serra's ass...

There's room on the Hershell Walker bandwagon.

The Walkers would be glad to have you.

my top 5 favorite fighters have changed alot. I watched MMA back starting with the first season of the ultimate fighter, so that was where I found alotta favorite fighters.

I stopped watching MMA up til about 5 months ago, and started seeing some newer fighters. I like all of my favorites about the same. Love watching them fight, whether its a win or loss.

Ya, Franklin is a gate keeper. Urijah Faber certainly isn't that now is he?


(MTB needs more fairweathers, go root for him)

I wouldn't say so, especially when he pushed Brown to the limit with one severely broken hand and the other hand also injured. They're both great fighters and I think Faber beats him in a threematch.
