“Rich still has a lot left to accomplish in this sport,” Stewart said to Stupp. “It’s too early for him to even consider retirement at this point.”

It also appears as though the UFC will continue to support Franklin.

“Rich still has a lot left to accomplish in this sport,” UFC president Dana White is quoted as saying in the article. “It’s too early for him to even consider retirement at this point.”

Um… So they both said the exactly same thing

So he didn’t beat Anderson Silva? Did you really think two fights was enough to prepare him for Anderson again? I think the fight was way too premature. Retirement shouldn’t be a consideration… there’s still a lot of room for growth.

Drop to welterweight until Silva gets into a contract dispute with Zuffa!

What exactly does he have left to accomplish? Sometimes Dana says the absolute dumbest things.

he should take a rest and let someone come in and dethrone silva…then go and attack the belt.

He needs to work on a better Clinch Defense.

sounds like Dana White & Franklin’s manager are accidentally reading the same prepared statement.
