Rich Franklin Kicks Wanderlei Silva’s Ass
You may have seen the raw footage of this floating around a week or so ago, but here’s the edited, minute-and-change version of Rich Franklin battling Wanderlei Silva in Rock/Paper/Scissors. The contest was a special exhibition bout that opened the 2008 Bud Light/USA Rock Paper Scissors League Championships — think “click-clack” for white hipsters — which went down June 21-22 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. How ’bout Franklin’s bitch-scream at 0:41? In a way, I think this video is very similar to how an actual fight between Franklin and Silva would go: Silva would come out strong in the first round, then Franklin would rally in the second before smashing Wandy’s scissors with a rock.

im watching this affliction countdown…man affliction is really bad at this shit. Especially the interviewer, he is just plain terrible, no enthusiasm at all. I hate Dana White but he is definitely better at this, he displays more charisma in selling his fighters

yea, I’m also gonna have to put Dark Knight higher on the priority list than Fight Night, and Affliction: Banned.
Pay Per Views and Fight Nights come ‘n go, but there is only one Dark Knight.
