Rich Franklin: The process for me starts several weeks before
the fight. I can't just jump into the sauna and cut 20 pounds. I can do
it, but it leaves you drained for the fight, especially with me being
out of the country in Brazil. I don't have the ability to have a nurse
come in and give me an IV. When you cut the weight properly and your
body weight is coming down little by little, if you miss a couple weeks
on the back-end of that, that could be the difference between being a
pound overweight.

Wanderlei Silva: I trained for Vitor and I trained
specifically for him for two months. I am in really good condition. I
know that someday we will fight. No problem.
Wanderlei Silva: My fight against Franklin is a rematch just
like Vitor. He's a great fighter and we'll give a great match for the
fans here in Brazil.
