Rich Franklin Not Expecting Another Title Shot
 Date submitted: 23 April 2008
Author: Mick Bower
Rich Franklin returned to form with an impressive victory over Travis Lutter at UFC 83: Serra vs St Pierre 2. “Ace” reminded the fans that he is one of the best Middleweights around, but he says he isn’t expecting to get a shot at Champion Anderson Silva any time soon.
After his fight at Montreal’s Bell center, he told AOL Sports:
"I'm sure they're (the UFC) not going to put me in another title fight. At this point, Silva's beaten me twice. So would I fight him again? Yeah. Do I see a point in it? I don't know."
Silva won the belt from Franklin with a first round stoppage at UFC 64: Unstoppable. The pair had a rematch at UFC 77: Hostile Territory. Silva dominated Franklin in front of his home crowd in Ohio. Where there this leaves Franklin is unclear. His win over Lutter establishes him as a top Middleweight, but he is correct in not expecting a title shot. It would be virtually impossible for the UFC to market a fight between a dominant champion and challenger he has already comprehensively beaten twice. |
