Has anybody heard anything about Sean Sherk? When is he going to defend???
Has anybody heard anything about Sean Sherk? When is he going to defend???
He had shoulder surgery after his fight with Florian. He's fighting Franca at UFC 72...
-Anderson Silva (#2 Middleweight in the World)* vs. Nathan Marquardt (#8 Middleweight in the World)*
- o Ortiz (#8 Light Heavyweight in the World)* vs. Rashad Evans
-Sean Sherk vs. Hermes Franca
This will be a disaster. Let's hope nobody ever hears about this and it goes away quietly and quickly.
I hope so too...

MERCER VS. KIMBO
Former Heavyweight Boxing Champ to Take on Kimbo Slice
By Jim Genia
(March 30th, New York City ) “Merciless” Ray Mercer, a former WBO heavyweight boxing champ and gold medalist in the 1988 Olympics, will take on bare-knuckle boxing and Internet legend Kimbo Slice in a three-round exhibition bout utilizing professional MMA rules at the Ca ge Fury Fighting Championship 5 show, said matchmaker Gary Marino today. Dubbed “Brawl at the Hall”, CFFC 5 will take place on June 16th at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey .
“I’m very, very excited,” said Marino. “I’ve been working on trying to get Kimbo a fight for the last year. He’s a great draw, and he’s got a huge following for his fights.” Marino added: “Ray Mercer was at the Ca ge Fury Fighting Championship 3 show and speculated that he’d like to try [MMA], and he called me a couple weeks ago asking me to get him a fight. It’s perfect for both guys, for their style and who they are. Kimbo’s a big banger and so is Mercer.”
Known for their heavy-hands and raw power, this will be the first time either man has fought under full MMA rules – though Slice purportedly has been training in the sport for some time now at Miami ’s Freestyle Fighting Academy . However, the former boxing champ, who lost his WBO belt to Wladimir Klitschko in 2002 before stepping into the ring for Japan’s K-1 promotion in 2004 and 2005, will likely enter the cage ready to defend the takedown should the need arise. Said Marino: “Ray Mercer told me he has a bit of a wrestling background, and he’s aware Kimbo has been training down in Florida . He’s been talking about MMA for a while now… so he’ll be prepared.”
With this bout, Mercer will become the highest-profile boxer to have taken the MMA plunge. “It’s very, very intriguing. I think it’s a fantastic fight,” said Marino. “Ray Mercer is definitely going to be the hardest hitter Kimbo has ever faced… I think if they both stand in front of each other, someone is definitely going to get knocked out.”

If this happens, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kimbo take it to the ground immediately...![]()
I guess a pathetic Gannon beating Kimbo was not enough to show these idiots that Kimbo isn't worth any attention concerning anything remotely close to MMA.
Well, apparently he's training for MMA seriously now...this is a post by Kimbo's MMA trainer...

I wouldn't be surprised at all if he took Mercer down and embarassed him with GnP. I doubt if Mercer trains for anything other than a stand-up fight...

How gay is this?? My respect for Cro-cop has diminished.![]()
^^^It's the gayest thing I've ever seen. This could do some Van Dammage to Cropcop's rep.
He's his childhood hero, and the reason he got into martial arts...so whatever floats his boat...![]()
Oh llllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shogun signed to fight twice in the UFC???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Babalu for revenge factor, then Chuck...if he beats Rampage...or maybe even if he doesn't![]()
He's actually the 2nd reason besides Bruce Lee that I got into martial arts. Years later, I can say that without being totally ashamed.![]()
in A!! Please happen!!
I wonder on Jean is gona teach him how to do the man splits
Shogun doesnt impress me.
Crocrop will start doing the obligatory flying split-kick in every fight.

huh? that boy is bad.
that. Randy Couture's confidence has probably increased ten fold after seeing that gay . The Natural will be severely underestimated, and yet exceed expectations again!

Yea, this 4 month span, including 2 fights in the same night, was pretty weak...
Quinton Jackson KO (Strikes) - 4/23/2005
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira Decision (Unaminous) - 6/26/2005
Alistair Overeem TKO (Strikes) - 8/28/2005
Ricardo Arona KO (Strikes) - 8/28/2005

He's still coming back from the dislocated elbow and hasn't looked like himself in any fight since then (maybe those are the only fights you've seen??), but he's still a bad mofo...
Then I have to doubt the veracity of your claim to be an mma fan![]()
I don't see Shogun leaving Pride now. Silva's out, Henderson's in and he will (finally) get his much deserved le shot.
I know right...if Shogun doesn't impress somebody, they're just a Pride hater...or they just don't know much about Shogun...
Pretty sure he's a Pride hater...
He's not leaving Pride though. The reports are that he signed a 4 fight contract...2 in Pride and 2 in the UFC. That would allow him to fight for the LHW le in Pride finally, as well as the winner of Chuck/Rampage...![]()
All the pieces seem to fit together too perfectly...![]()
