I would love to see this fight, although I dont think my boy Rich would be very successful in standing with Cane. But a win for either of these guys would put them as one of the top contenders IMO.

I think this would be a very competitive fight. Luis Cane certainly has the sharper punches and decent leg kicks but Rich Franklin, I think, has the more diversified skill-set both on the ground and on the feet. Yes, I know Cane is a purple belt or a brown belt but I’m sure he’s not on Rich’s level. But it won’t go to the ground anyway. I predict a decision slugfest which Franklin will closely come away with.

Great fight… it’s good to see Cane calling out people.

Considering all of the top contenders already being booked

this fight makes perfect sense. Make it happen Dana!

It'd be badass

if the UFC put this fight together.

Winner is instantly thrust into contender status, probably for a title eliminator fight.

I was very unimpressed with his last performance, if his defence and gas tank are in the same shape as before, Rich is gonna tear that ass up. And I’m not thoroughly convinced that Cane is the next big thing, even going back to the Soko fight.

I was very impressed by Cane against Cantwell because I think Cantwell is the real deal. And how do you not love Cane after taking everything Soko had to throw at him and then putting his ass out?

One thing that Cane does that’s similar to what WEC Featherweight Champion Mike Brown does is to constantly push forward even win getting hit. While that may be a bad thing to some, I really have yet to see Cane get dropped. I remember Cane taking a flush head kick to the chin by Cantwell, and Cane just kept pushing forward is if he wasn’t even hit.
