Sherk has 2 losses on his record, 1 to GSP tko and 1 to Hughes via decision. 2 top level fighters. BJ needs to have his cardio in top shape for this fight. After Sherk went through France and Florian, I wonder if Sherk can be stopped. His wrestling is just to much for LW fighters.
On a side note, Xyience, the company that the UFC supports went bankrupt. When Sherk failed to roids, some of Xyience's products were tested and did contain roids in them. I will take Sherk's word on not taking roids just because his workouts are that intense to make someone that big in the LW class. |
I didn't hear about Xyience, I knew there was a scandal but I didn't know what it was about. Thanks for clearing that up.
I agree, Sherk's wrestling doesn't look like it can be matched by a LW (as of now at least) and I do see that being the deciding factor in the match. That's why I predicted the TKO, I think it'll stem from a takedown into a mount. Also, it is a title fight with 5 rounds. I don't think BJ has the cardio for it, but I might be wrong.
