			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I fell into some cash lately and was looking for a way to make it exciting and I came across the upcoming fight this weekend between Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson. I figured <a href="http://www.betus.com/sports-betting/ufc/">UFC betting</a> was the way to go because for a while now I have been under the assumption thatÂ  Rich Franklin was featured on True Life: I&#8217;m a Muay Thai fighter. And also for a while now, I have been completely wrong. The fighter featured in that episode was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Cope">Kit Cope</a> who went on to get a season finale of the show Ultimate Fighter, but pretty much did nothing else. Take a look at the two (<a href="http://mmajunkie.com/dyn/images/fighters/rich-franklin.jpg">Franklin</a>, <a href="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y195/twigxxx/IMG_1716.jpg">Cope</a>) and you&#8217;ll see that somebody who watches as much True Life as I do could easily make the mistake. It also could have been that I was distracted by thinking about <a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/dyn/truelife/episode/episode.jhtml?episodeId=109377">True Life: I have Tourettes</a>, which was the greatest episode ever. I actually looked into an MMA fight not involving Kimbo Slice for once and realized that there can be a little intrigue. Here&#8217;s a sweet video that breaks down the fight and has a little HBO 24/7 feel. It is also complete with Joe Rogan analysis so you know it&#8217;s the real deal. Personally I am putting my Christmas money on Franklin who sitting at even (yes I have gotten back into <a href="http://www.betus.com/">sports betting</a>, hopefully this time I don&#8217;t put my entire balance on horses in the Kentucky Derby after a good bit of Natty) and has been favored by a <a href="http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&amp;ct=us/0-0&amp;fp=49661eb0070dbe74&amp;ei=pjFmSfnGK4zK8ASG-NDyBA&amp;url=http%3A//sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/mma/01/08/bisping/&amp;cid=0&amp;usg=AFQjCNG-XPSG306QhNJG-O3dHndoQIqO-g">former opponent</a>.</p>
