I knew the UFC match between Rich Franklin and Cung Le would be competitive, but I really did feel sure which way it would go. I suspected that Cung Le would win because of how well he disposed of Patrick Cote recently and Frank Shamrock before that.

    Yeah! WTF! This was the first bout I watched live and it was over in less than 3 mins. They're trained so well, you'd think they can take more than one hit.

      No matter how much a person trains, it won't make the brain more resistant to the trauma of being slammed against the walls of the skull.

      It was a calculated and timed punch, not just a random and lucky. Rich Franklin miscalculated, Cung Le got it right and KO'd him. No excuses.

      Rich Franklin's mistake was that he became too predictable. Cung Le could see that Franklin was timing his kicks, so punched him instead, knocking Rich Franklin out.

      Cung Le said, "He kept loading up and looking for a kick and then catch me with the punches. So I waited for him to punch and I just came in with the overhand right." That is not just lucky.

        Bang on the button there. Its usually always a good fight with Rich Franlin, so I didn't expect this.
