Hope he doesn’t have to sell his house next considering that he’ll never be MW champ again…

You can get this Hummer at half price, $40,000 if we have Anderson Silva put it in his clinch and knee the shit out of it!

Maybe he just wants a vehicle that’s not the scourge of the roadways and doesn’t suck down about $400 a week in gas.

WHY is everyone who got a hummer selling it right back, don’t you think DANa WHite it mad , its a slap in his face ., or
Rich doesn’t have any money and this is a way to get sum loote and publicity cuz we all saw how little rich franklin made and how little anderson silva has been making especially for one defending his belt and the other fighting for the title.

Once again the ufc cares little about it’s PAWNS….
Like for instance KIMBO slice who is good but has little mma experiance got more money that anderson silva or rich franklin in an organization that dana whit says is a farce of an organization, elite xc, which happens to get better and better.

Hey at least ELITE PAYS WELL!!!

UFC = no compitition
they need to adopt what Borack OBAMA doing open talks with all enimies!! oh BUT THEY HAVE NONE?!??!?!?

just fyi this probably doesnt mean Rich is having financial problems…he said himself on the show that he was doing well….i just remember on the extras on the TUF2 dvd, right when dana gave them the hummers, Rich laughs and asks Hughes “Where are you gonna put it???” its actually pretty funny, but i think right from the get go he didnt really want that thing..they are useless cars

If he truely was “financially set” then the cost of gasoline wouldn’t play a factor in his decision.

Well, if he gets his “Buy it Now” price, he’ll be making more money selling his free Hummer than he did for getting his face rearranged by Anderson Silva.

Just curious, did you bid on it just “to bid on it”, or are you seriously trying to win the auction? If so, I’m rooting for you. On the auction listing, it says that Rich had a few things added, the stereo and some lcd screens. If I remember correctly, Randy and Chuck both got theirs all hooked up with stereo systems (like 12 subwoofers) already. I wonder if that’s just the way the auction is wording it and Rich and Matt got factory Hummer’s or if their’s were like Season 1’s. I would imagine that Rich HAD to recieve it as is, because I highly doubt that he would have added purple neon lights spelling “UFC” on the back of his truck, but then again, he does where pink shorts when he fights… (lol/jk)

Exactly. Rich got beat but he probably doesn’t need a dick extension just yet. You want a good truck you can use get one, you want a fancy car get one. That hummer is nether.

Hopefully he had a ‘buy one nose get one free’ deal with his doctor.

Hughes may have gotten rid of his Hummer, but you know he kept the tractor he got the second time around. lol

It seems like most of the former TUF caoches have auctioned their Hummers.

fighters are paid far more than alot of you seem to think

franklin must be a multimillionaire

their base salary may not sound very good but they also get paid for promotional work, sponsorship, training people seminars etc and also get a percentage of ppv and dvd sales

hummers are just not a very practical car for a lot of people… and $100k isnt to be sniffed at even if you had 10 million in the bank

kimbo and tank had 6 figure pay packets but theres a high chance that and sponsorship were all they got no ppv sales or dvd sales

fighter pay should be kept between ufc and the fighters

alot fo you have obviously nothing better to than to nad mouth fighters 24/7 and favortize your own! have some respect for them. and so what if sells it you guys actually dont care at all about the fact that 10% is going to be donated to a charity!

Didn’t Rich already try to auction that thing off a while back?

If you think about it, the car could easily sell for the 80,000 and instead of having the car parked in the garage, why not sell it and donate some money and also fix up or add things to his gym, its a no brainer he isnt stupid, im sure DANA takes very good care of him he doesnt need money he just isnt going to pull a mike tyson and spend all his money on shit he doesnt even need. I mean even his name says it “RICH”
lol jk but come on it makes sense.

hummers are pretty useless anyway, and at least some of the money goes to a good cause
