Rich Franklin is a former high school math teacher turned professional athlete in mixed martial arts (MMA). Franklin has competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) for nearly 12 years, during which he captured the middleweight World Championship in 2005. Notably, he was the first man in UFC history to fight in four different countries and headlined the organization's first-ever live hit network cable show "The Ultimate Fighter." Currently, Franklin is the Vice President of ONE Championship, Asia's largest martial arts promotion, where he also hosts his own travel show "ONE Warrior Series."

In addition to his roles in MMA, Franklin has made successful forays into Hollywood, teaching seminars, and even started his own clothing line.
