The Crow v. Franklin

I could actually see the Crow taking this... Tanner is exellent at keeping people down... and he couldnt hold him down... striking I can see The Crow outstriking him...

 

discuss ?

yep.

???

Rich is way more explosive than Tanner. Rich would be way too strong for the Crow. Franklin by whatever he wants!

I'll second that.

i think it would be a good fight. Franklin definately wouldn't own him. IMO Franklin is way overratted and needs a good ass kicking

Then you are retarded.

Don't sleep on Crow. I want to see this fight.

I'll pick Franklin but its an intriguing matchup.

It would be an explosive fight. You would definitely have to give the edge to Franklin, but with two great strikers, as always, anything could happen.

He didnt sub him and The Crow was able to et back to his feet often... Holding him down would be more of what Kos was doing.

Franklin would win easily IMO.

If it stays standing, The Crow beats him. If it goes to the ground, edge Franklin, though as The Crow proved last night he should never be counted out on the ground.

Franklin really cant claim to be any better then Tanner on the ground, nor can he claim to have better takedowns then Tanner. If Loiseau could handle himself with Tanner on the ground, he can hold his own there with Franklin as well.

Franklin can claim to be more willing to stand then Tanner with the much better stand up overall then Tanners, but all that does is play into The Crows favour because thats exactly where he wants to be. Loiseau matches up better against Franklin then he did against Tanner.

Loiseau will give Franklin a great fight. If it stays on it's feet, it could have the potential for one of the better, more competitive stand up/striking displays in some time. lets make it happen UFC.

Franklin would beat him. Why? More rounded.

Id just love to see it.

i think rich would tear him appart anyway he wanted. he owned riveria. i dont have much respect for lousiou after we did not fight for some reason after my menne fight, when we were ared on a card to fight a week later

The only reason the Crow won that fight is because Tanner is a bleeder. As long as franklin doesn't have paper thin skin he'll take the fight.

Tanner would beat him in a rematch as well. He dominated until the cuts. Tanner got a little careless because it was going so easily.

much better fight than Rich Franklin/Barny Ruble, I mean Nate Quarry. Rich out strikes the crow

LOL. I knew Quarry reminded me of someone. Actually, he seems like a really good guy.
