Chuck Liddell and Rich Franklin talk about their UFC Light Heavyweight title runs:
Chuck Liddell - "I want to make another run at the title," said Liddell. "I'm guessing it will take another couple fights, I'm going to have to beat a couple more guys, and then hopefully a title shot after that."
Rich Franklin - "The UFC has repeatedly told me that they aren't interested in seeing me fight at 185 any more. Because of that, I moved up to 205. It all comes down to the fact that they didn't want to do a Franklin-Silva III," said Franklin. ..."Ultimately I would be stuck fighting in that weight class without ever being able to fight for a title again, which would make no sense since that is the whole reason we do this and the goal we work towards as fighters."
