I'm pullin for Franklin on this one. Although I've only seen two of his fights, UFC 42 and 44, that was enough. Terrell is definitly gonna be a tough fight.
From what I understand Franklin is dropping DOWN to middlewieght from LHW, I don't know if that will help or hinder his game.
I've met Franklin at a handful of ICE events where he refs the matches. He is a stand up guy that I hope can make a huge return to UFC. Hoping to see a Meattruck shirt on his back.

Alot of people are not aware of the fact that Rich is bjj brown belt. His ground game is tight! Rich has good submissions, good guard and an excellent guard passing game.
none of those skills would offer him any escape from the fury that is the soul assasin.
I would take Terrell. I think he could take Franklin down and beat him there. There would not be any kind of noteworthy size advantage for Franklin cause Terrell is also a huge middleweight.
David would smoke Rich like a cuban cigar.
Franklin.
