Looks like someone at the UFC is listening.
I gave my two cents about the lack of logic behind Franklin-Henderson II scheduled for UFC 103 and it seems I may not have been the only one. The UFC has changed its mind and now has Franklin facing returning former champion Vitor Belfort.
The lack of logic in this one? It's being contested at a catchweight of 195.
Why?
Is the UFC trying to create a new division for Franklin? Why have him move from middleweight to light heavyweight if you're just going to have him competing at these catchweight levels? This doesn't help him move up the rankings nor prove his value to the light heavyweight division.
Maybe the UFC figures the division is already stacked and this keeps Franklin from getting pummeled by the likes of Forrest Griffin and Rampage Jackson.
Still, I'm looking forward to UFC 103 - it's shaping up to be an interesting card.
Stay tuned for UFC 101 predictions.
