It's actually a tie, first to compliment me doesn't have their thread erased.

Griffin might be too big for Ace IMO, he should be able to bully him around the cage

Good, winnable fight for both. They couldn't have asked for better. Franklin obviously much better technically but Forrest is a big mf'er at 205. Great fight

All Forrest has over Rich is size and heart (And that's questionable). Rich should take this fight...

I'm sending mixed messages, oh well.

I like the notion of making super shows. New years has been a staple but Super Saturday could be the better move to differentiate from the fact New Years used to belong to PRIDE. Super Saturday and like 4th o July or something. UFC 127 as rumored:

Champ Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort (for middleweight title)
Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin
Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones

Myth - Ace is vastly superior to Forrest in any aspect of this fight.

Reality - Forrest is as good or better a striker than GriffinAce is. He's also bigger with longer reach and a better ground game.




Forrest's fight to lose.

He is a better striker then himself, but what about Franklin?
