UFC Fuel 6 Recap  Cung Le vs. Rich Franklin in China

By: Anthony L. Gonzalez

 Macau, China– In an amazing upset, Cung Le shocked China and the UFC with a stunning knockout of Rich Franklin (29-7,1, UFC 14-6). Many in the US missed this historic UFC debut in Macau, China because it was early morning in the US at the time of the fight. Le now (10-2, UFC 2-1) was able to take advantage of a Franklin kick and counter with an overhand right hook. The counter right hand knockout was so devastating that it left Franklin unconscious.

Here is what Le had to say,

“He was loading up and looking for me to kick (so he could] attack me with punches),” said Le. “I came in, I waited for him to punch and I came in with the overhand right and caught him. Thank you Lord.”
