The short memory mma fandom rears its head after Franklin gets TKO'd by someone other than the best P4P (hate that title) fighter known as Anderson Silva

IN the link above, you find the doubting of Rich Franklin and his ability to make another title run in either the 185 lb strap or 205 lb strap divisions.

Take at look at Ace's record on sherdog here, and remember the past up until Belfort's hand to the top of Franklin's head on Saturday night.

In the past 4 years or so he's beaten: Quarry, Loiseau, Macdonald, Hamill, Vanderlei, Okami among others. Guys that at one time or another have been or were considered on the brink of being contenders.

Over the ENTIRETY OF HIS CAREER he's lost 5 times:  A. Silva, Belfort, Machida, and Hendo. Seriously. And people say that he's basically finished. What a load of rubbish.
