Speaking with ‘Big’ John McCarthy and Josh Thomson on the WEIGHING IN podcast, Rich Franklin offered his take on ONE Championship’s upcoming night of fights and the martial artists he’s excited to see step back inside the Mecca of Muay Thai. Franklin said:

“I would say this about this card. There are some other great fights on this card. I’m actually excited to see Kang Ji Won back in the card again. He had great knockouts with guys like Amir Aliakbari. I think he’s a fun guy to watch. He’s definitely a guy that’s underrated in that weight class. Obviously, we also got ‘Supergirl’ back in the card. They really put together a good card for this November 3 show.”
