Okami vs. Franklin

Got this idea from the Okami vs. Silva thread. Who do you think would win this fight. This would be the first time these guys would run into someone that is just as strong as them. As much as I like Okami I think Franklin would be able to keep it on his feet long enough to win the match. But Okami put it on the ground, Franklin would be in a world of trouble.

Franklin would take this. He wouldnt get bullied around by Okami and would be able to keep this fight on the ground. Even if it does go to the ground Franklin is good enough there to get out of it. Franklin by late 2nd round tko

judging by okamis one hand stand up against swick i would judge that franklin for sure wins on the feet...and i think franklin has good enough take down d to stop the takedown....and also id venture to say franklin is maybe a little stonger...

franklin can keep it standing and ko/tko okami...even if it goes to the ground for a little franklin can get back up....

Franklin by TKO.

Okami is a good fighter with lots of power and ground skill, but he won because he had more power to make up for his standup and Swick was tentative to let him control the pace. Franklin is much larger and stronger than Swick, and has no qualms with immediately taking the lead with the pace.
Swick hurt Okami badly with the flurry at the end of the 2nd round, but Okami pulled through because he was able to manhandle Swick by clinching and wrestling as soon as Swick tried to step into the pocket and unload without landing a big stunning shot first

Franklin will finish if he can start up a flurry

I agree, plus Franklin has alot better take down d then Swick and is stronger so wont be able to be bullied

This would be a very good fight.

I'll go with Okami by Dec.
