    I suppose fighting can make for strange bedfellows. First we had Georges St. Pierre working with Kenny Florian to beat BJ Penn, now we have The Spider training Rich Franklin to beat Wanderlei Silva.

    The Silva's have recently had a bit of a flame war over Wandy's decision to drop down to middleweight, which may have prompted Spider's desire to help Franklin beat him. Silva has (for a long time) had the utmost respect for Franklin, almost overly so, despite kicking his head in twice in UFC competition.
