Sherk never fought huerta, i think you might have meant Franca.

That's an interesting comparison, it makes them seem pretty even. I didn't know that Sherk was 34 though.

I just don't see BJ getting subbed. And I definitely don't see him getting KO'd by Sherk.

So I'm left with BJ either doing something really slick to get a sub, or one of them being the aggressor for the majority of the fight and pulling the decision.

Those were some interesting stats. I still see BJ cutting Sherk open and that stopping the fight. If the fight goes do decision BJ is in trouble.

If the fight gets past the 2nd round its in favor of Sherk simply becasue hes got unlimited cardio and everyone knows BJ is not exactly known for having a big gas tank

lol if they didnt stop the Florian/Sherk fight, I doubt they would stop this one unless Sherk really is careless to protecting his face.

that cut never got into his eyes though. Thats pretty much the main concern with cuts i believe. They dont want their fighters to go blind.

Good topic. I just don`t think Sherk brings anything that BJ can`t handle. Sherk has a good gas tank but BJ seems motivated and made a skilled MMA fighter in Joe Stevenson look like an amateur. I would say that BJ takes this one whenever Sherk makes a silly error. I would like to see BJ throw his hands tho, I fully believe he can KO Sherk and Iw would love to see him laid out.
