When Rich Franklin last came to Singapore, he was here to give a weekend seminar on some of the finer points of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).

Now, he's set to return to his natural division (Middleweight, 185 pounds), and will go to war against dangerous striker Cung Le. To help prepare for the fight, he's returned to Singapore to have a full training camp at Evolve MMA.

Rich and the owner of Evolve, Chatri Sityodtong, took some time in between training sessions to answer some questions from xinmsn.
