UFC 77 picks

[Colonel Callan]

BTW, it IS shameful that Franklin failed to beat Silva with a revised game
plane when Lutter nearly did it, the only thing that can explain it is a failure
of the mental armor to mend since the last fight.

I agree 100%. To me, Franklin looked lost on the way into the ring, the look
in his eyes was strange, resigned. Silva is hardly unbeatable. An in-shape
Lutter never mind others would take him out before the final bell. That said,
Silva does not act like an ass like so many black affletes. He goes out there
to do his job.
