Wow, I agree….Too much sherk bashing. I train at the Minnesota Martial arts acadamy and watch sherk train. The guy could be a pro boxer if he wasent so short. He is constantly improving his Jiu Jitsu game (yes, he tosses the gi on and works tec too) Great at Thai boxing and JKD. He is a great fighter, and fun to watch. Big slams, fast take downs, good boxing skills. Why is it that when liddell fights and has his oppenet turn there back on him and he doesnt choke them you dont trash on him? Sherk is a smart fighter, he has a take down that Koscheck wishes he had (and he is quoted saying that) Boxing skills that are great, he is just so short that when he he fights he is so close to the other fighter he is close enough to take them down, so why not??? In his career, he has never even had a submission scare, he is too good at them him self. I cant see anyone beating him at LW.

SS is very aggressive, fast, and powerful and fights his game and no one else’s. That is the sport, they can’t stop him they can’t take his belt. He will hold the belt for a long time and who cares if some think he is boring. He dominates his opponent and that is all that matters. SS will not lose this one for sure.

I think Sherk will probably win (and then get injured lol). Hes totally fucked if he has to fight BJ though.

People are ridiculous just because Sherk didnt finish Florian, he’s just like matt Hughes but I’d say more explosive and better striking

sherk will hold that belt for a while, on second thought…the only way i can see him lose it is by ref stoppage due to sever bleeding…i luv that little guy, but he’s a bleeder. hit him with a pillow and the guy will bleed to death.

sorry shark…

sherk would win this one hands down, like it was said earlier gsp and hughes are the only one’s who beat sherk and there huge for welter weights. Sherk also beat karo twice, no small feat! I think the only light weight who would have a good chance to beat sherk would be bj penn.

God I hope Franca wins. He so exciting to watch fight, always putting it on the line. Sean’s tough but normally his most exciting fights is when he lost!! Also its effective in a ring but not on the streets (lay and pray not ground and pound) getrawbc. Everyone is allowed their own opinion but damn to just sticking to what you do best. Thats how we got a boring heavyweight champ now, that they gotta pull some gimmick to get people to tune in and watch fight. Go out there and fight.

Sean Sherk is a very talented wrestler, but he hasn’t been that impressive in his last three fights. I would still give the match to sherk, but he better put on a show this time.
