Rich Franklin is one of the most popular fighters in the history of the UFC. Franklin thinks that could be a reason why he’s always tabbed when the company goes to a market for the first time. He’s also in a unique position for his fight this weekend with Chuck Liddell. Franklin stepped in during the last week of filming The Ultimate Fighter to replace Tito Ortiz, and he now gets the fight originally scheduled for Ortiz as well.
