"There will be more fights coming. This won't be his last fight in the UFC, that's for sure…. He has been knocked down off the top of the ladder but he'll work his way back up. He'll recover. You'll see a lot more of Rich in the future, that's for sure."

Update: Rich Franklin is set to undergo surgery to repair his broken nose today according to the wrestling observer.
