Dan Henderson vs. Rich Franklin II set for UFC 103

The UFC announced that Dan Henderson and Rich Franklin will face off for the second time this year as the main event for UFC 103 in September. 

Once again it appears that the UFC does not know what to do with either Franklin or Henderson as several questions remain to be answered.

Will this fight be at middleweight or light heavyweight? Will Henderson ever get a shot at the middleweight title, the way that Michael Bisping would of had he beaten Henderson. Will Rich Franklin ever start fighting current light heavyweights or will he be forced to keep battling against fighters with names but who are stuck in limbo like Franklin?

Ultimately we will have to wait for these questions to be answered, something that WKR thought had occured after UFC 93.

Franklin and Henderson fought at UFC 93 and Henderson pulled away with a narrow split decision victory (29-28, 29-28, 27-30). Franklin was hit hard by the decision later describing it as the equivalent to robbery.

Since that fight in January both fighters won their respective bouts. Rich Franklin defeated Wanderlei Silva at UFC 99 (they fought at 195lbs catch-weight). At UFC 100 Dan Henderson knocked out Michael Bisping for what many thought would be a middleweight title shot. 

Now it appears that both fighters are back to square one.
