Rich Franklin, known as "Ace," is a light heavyweight competitor in the UFC with a professional record of 29-7-0. Across 20 tracked UFC bouts, Franklin has demonstrated clear striking power, having landed 551 significant strikes and recorded 8 knockdowns — numbers that reflect a stand-up game built on precision and punching output. His takedown activity is minimal, underlining a preference for keeping fights on the feet.
Franklin's recent run includes back-to-back victories. He defeated Wanderlei Silva by decision at UFC 147 and followed that with a win over Cung Le at UFC Macao. Prior to that stretch, he dropped a decision to Forrest Griffin at UFC 126. The Silva win was itself a rematch, adding context to a career that has seen Franklin face high-profile opposition consistently. His 8 knockdowns across tracked bouts reinforce his reputation as a fighter capable of finishing opponents with his hands.
