Anchor's favorite fighter. A former math teacher from Cincinnati Ohio, Franklin employs a highly unorthodox fighting style based on his backgrounds in mathematics and education. This unique approach to MMA lead Franklin to a highly impressive 20-1-1 record and a run with the UFC Middleweight title. Then at UFC 64 Franklin faced off against Anderson Silva. The fight was a short brutal affair as Silva proceeded to put Franklin in the Muay-Thai Clinch, broke his nose, and then fucked his ass before a horrified Las Vegas Crowd. Franklin will fight Matt Hamill at UFC 88, that fight will be at 205.
