Subject: Franklin has Anderson Silva training him for his upcoming fight against Wand Mon 27 Apr 2009, 1:32 pm |

Anderson Silva stripped him of the title and then crushed him in a rematch in front of a hometown crowd, but Cincinnati native and UFC veteran Rich Franklin apparently knows an opportunity when he sees it. Sources close to Silva, who still holds the UFC middleweight title, recently told the Dayton Daily News that the champ has agreed to train with Franklin, who meets dangerous striker Wanderlei Silva at a June 13 UFC 99 event in Germany. Franklin’s manager, J.T. Stewart, declined to comment. Silva first defeated Franklin via TKO in October 2006, and he did it again in an October 2007 rematch. The defeats were just the second and third losses of Franklin’s career, and they penetrated what had seemed to be an aura of invincibility around the 34-year-old fighter. Franklin recently took off for Seattle to commence his usual fight camp under Matt Hume, and he’ll apparently spend some time training with Silva in California while he’s away. Silva, who’s posted a record nine straight UFC wins and five consecutive UFC title defenses, has breezed through the UFC’s middleweight division. But Franklin was one of the few to offer a legitimate challenge, so the training is likely to benefit both fighters.

They should have a streetfight, fuck the rules, fuck the octogon, this is a mans fight now.
Anderson has crossed the man line AGAIN and Wandy will NOT stand for it. They need to straight up brawl in the streets.
