UFC 77: Franklin vs. Silva II in Cincinnati, Ohio

UFC 77: “Hostile Territory” Saturday, October 20 at 10 p.m. ET on pay-per-view (PPV) U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio

This event is scheduled to take place on October 20th, 2007 at the US Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio. With the main event being for the light heavyweight title between Anderson Silva and Rich Franklin.

Silva has dominated the UFC since arriving in June of 2006, beating Chris Leben handily at Ultimate Fight Night 5 before getting his shot at Franklin at UFC 64, a fight Silva won by TKO in the first round.

Silva and Lyoto Machida are the only two people to put a blemish on Franklin's record. Silva has since went on to beat Travis Lutter at UFC 67 and Nate Marquardt at UFC 73 with neither contest going the distance.

Silva is gonna have a mental edge over rich for sure, but i think rich will fight smart and do what he can to make the fight last as long as possible, probably by keeping his distance and picking his shots, its a 5 round fight and i think the longer it goes the more chance rich could have of landing a big bomb, marquardt was a little too aggressive and it cost him, silva is too good for that, rich needs to fight defensive and counter punch a lot, but still i don’t know how good his chances are, even with the hometown crowd behind him. rich is pretty much a striker and at least with marquardt and lutter those guys had a chance on the ground, silva really out matches rich everywhere in the octagon, its probably gonna be a tough night for rich. Silva's record currently stands at 19-4.
