Okay, so yeah, I am kinda surprised with this one. It wasn't one of those destruction-KOs, that results from taking all the guys health, it was a flash-KO, resulting from a sudden burst of "I just kicked your ass" syndrome. At the end of this fight, in terms of non-flash-KO damage, the fighters looked dead even. Moral: Protect your damned chin Rich Franklin! Jesus.
