What's Your Story?: "Franklin had a record of 17 wins and 1 loss before his fight for the title, which he won. His sole loss was against Lyoto Machida by TKO in the second round. In the run up to the title match, he defeated such well-respected fighters as Evan Tanner, Jorge Rivera, Edwin Dewees, and Ken Shamrock. In 2005, he defeated Evan Tanner for a second time at UFC 53 to win the UFC middleweight championship. His victory led to his being a coach on the second season of The Ultimate Fighter."
