UFC 147 Silva vs Franklin 2: Quick Picks

UFC 147: Silva vs. Franklin II
Mineirinho Arena
Belo Horizonte, Brazil


  The "Axe Murderer" may be following Fedor Emelianenko and Spencer Fisher in fighting his last fight in a long and legendary career this weekend as he faces Rich Franklin who fills in for the injured Vitor Belfort.  We don't hold out much hope but for Wand but it is two of MMAFO's all time favorite MMA warriors meeting in battle once again so let the chips fall where they may.  Fabricio Werdum and Mike Russow jiggle around the Octagon while the rest of the card is almost entirely Brazilians we don't know in this Brazil event ravaged by injuries and cancellations to the card.  I don't know these people.  You don't know these people.  Let's just play the guessing game and see how we do.
