Wanderlei Silva vs. Rich Franklin: Who ya got??

Dan LaSavage (Roufusport): "Wanderlei is my favorite fighter to watch, but I think his better days are behind him. Franklin by TKO. Oh yeah, get all your MMA gear at Combat Corner Fight Shop."

Henry Matamoros (Matamoros BJJ): "Silva."

Eric Schafer (Roufusport): "Franklin...I think Silva throws too wild and hasn't improved his technique. Rich will gameplan and out think him."

Pat O'Malley (Chosen Few): "Great fight! I'm gonna go with Franklin. I think Silva has lost a step and Ace will capitalize."

Duke Roufus (Roufusport): "I think Franklin."

Mike Biddle (UMA): "Silva wins by triangle choke."

Adam Burroughs (UMA): "Silva is a (explicative) killer!"

Luke Summerfield (WCS): "Silva. I just don't like Franklin."

Dom Velando (WCS): "Dear God, Please let Silva win and I promise I'll never kick a puppy again... Not really hard, anyway."

Gabe Wahhab (WCS): "Silva. Bigger and stronger."

Jameel Massouh (Freestyle Academy): "Extremely tough to call. I'm going with Silva via KO in the Thai Clinch. But it could easily go either way. It's going to be a war. Fans win either way."

	... Wanderlei Silva's gotta win, his backs against the wall. To big, to strong, and if Wanderlei's knees don't get Franklin, his right hook will. Damn aint he like a black belt in jiu-jitsu to???

	... Franklin's leg kicks will keep Silva at bay. Franklin wins 29-28 I'd rather see Silva vs Silva. I think Dana would too.

	... Gonna be hard for Silva if the fight doesn't end quickly (weight drop)... Franklin by split decision, bloody war. Spider kills the winner.

	... Franklin will out think Silva. Silva fights for the fans, Franklin fights to win. No way Wandereli is bigger or stronger than Franklin, Franklin is a huge 185. Boo to the catch weight, whats the purpose? I am not a Franklin fan, big Silva fan, Franklin KO's Silva via counter strike in the 2nd.
