    Chucks getting old, but should he continue to fight after the KO by Rich Franklin?

    I thought he looked good against Franklin… Mixed his strikes, pressured Frankin and had him rocked!

    His problem now is his chin, as it was a 4 inch straight which KO’D him…

    But if he was to continue fighting, and Dana stuck with his thoughts regards to him not fighting in the UFC…then he could be a tremendous signing for Strikeforce..which would attract the causal mma fan!

    So who knows…
