Sean Sherk isn’t what most would call a fan favorite. Sure, he has his hardcore contingent of supporters, but even when he reigned as the UFC lightweight champ he faced criticism from detractors who found his style of fighting less than enthralling to watch. That criticism reached a fever pitch after a positive steroid test following his title defense against Hermes Franca last summer, which resulted in Sherk being stripped of the title.
“The Muscle Shark” has repeatedly professed his innocence on the steroid charge, filing an appeal with the CSAC and taking repeated polygraph tests to try and clear his name. Now the former UFC lightweight champion talks with Cage Potato about the steroid accusations, his attempts to prove his innocence, and the war of words with current title-holder B.J. Penn, as they prepare to meet in the Octagon at UFC 84.

i really don't see how people can dislike him for what he was accused of doing. he is by far one of the most interesting fighters to watch when he's in the cage because he's so explosive.

Shrek is interesting? A notorious lay and prayer? A guy with one way to win? People don't like him because he cheated and then lied about it. He is not accused of roiding, he was ruled guilty of rioding. Are you in so much denial that you still say he is only accused of roiding? Dana did strip him of the belt. Maybe he is so explosive from the roids?

Sean Sherk ain't Joe Stevenson... BJ Penn will not run through Sherk as easily as most are thinking. Sherk is relentless with his takedowns and I expect to see an all-out war... Sherk can grind out a 5 round decision. I've seen Penn falter in the later rounds so Penn needs to impose his will on Sherk right away. I can see Penn kicking his ass for the first few rounds and then Sherk taking over in the later rounds... could end up being a controversial decision.
