The UFC's forthcoming debut on the Versus network is already shaping up nicely, and a lightweight scrap between Clay Guida and Sean Sherk is in the works for the event.

This looks like the 3rd fight good enough to be on a PPV main card

Woah wait, Vera vs Bones Jones is official? I didn't realize! This is a sweet fight too, and look for Sherk to in all likelyhood out strike Guida who has never been great in that department.


Again - Sherk out struck a guy who just retired Hermes Franca by KO before the Edgar fight. He isn't as bad as people assume all of a sudden.

Sherk's striking is decent, but he lacks reach, head movement, and footwork.

Good fight, Sherk should win a decision here

Griffin doesn't suck at striking, just wanted to point that out, but Farmer's point are valid, he has short arms and lacks head movement cause he has no neck.

I personally think the guy is still a top 10 LW, and think there's guys ranked ahead of him he'd beat, but he needs to get back to wrestling more.

His last 3 losses are to GSP best WW ever, BJ best LW ever and Frankie a top 5 LW IMO, he's beaten Griffin, Franca, KenFlo and Nick Diaz in that time.

His footwork and boxing fundamentals are pretty reasonable for mma, his problems are almost all reach related once he becomes one dimensional. Watch his fights since he returned from the suspension and youll see he'd land a lot of shots with longer arms and kept his opponents honest by shooting. on Penn and Edgar as well. If he used more kicks, and changed levels more making people respect the takedown he'd do pretty well even with short arms.

Tyson Griffin is a good striker, he knocked Urijah Faber out standing, and Sherk handled him.

Bloodyelbow had some long winded stupid write up on all of these huge issues he supposedly has by some guy who admittedly never trained boxing in his life in the article after the Edgar fight and it makes people think Sherk lacks all these skills everyone else has. Not so. Sure he could move his head more, especially once he gets frustrated and starts taking a lot of combinations, but I firmly believe even with a more varied attack he could be a pretty dangerous all around fighter. His short arms won't give him a lot of mechanical advantage to score KOs, but I think he even with that disadvantage he could move back into the top of the heap if he put together all the skills currently in his tool box.
