UFC 93 Preview: Dan Henderson Takes on Rich Franklin
Dan Henderson vs. Rich Franklin The big problem I have with Franklin is I do not know if he can counter Henderson's wrestling ability. The Matt Hamill fight does not tell us anything because Hamill insisted upon standing, instead of relying on his wrestling background.

Random Thoughts on UFC 92 and the MMA World for 2008 and 2009

First Reactions To A Disappointing UFC 92

Mike Bisping: The Hating Ends Now

He was 2-2 in his last four fights.). So, to be fair, here's what we know. His nickname is "The Silverback."He...
