why u ppl didnt talk about this great fighter who is right now ufc lightweight champ. i think hes the only one with bodybuilding body type in the ufc and is great. his record is impressive too, 33-2-1,
currently the best record after matt hughes.he is also rank at top5 in welterweight class and of course if he drop weight class to lightweight he is unbeatable.
After losing to Hughes, he found it hard to get quality opponents. Many top ten fighters turned down offers to fight Sherk, most likely because of his performance against hughes. he eventually fought Ryuki Ueyama in pride Bushido 2 and won, stunning the crowd with his aggressive wrestling style, but also showcasing his bjj skills. It was in japan where he get his nickname, "The Muscle Shark".
and considering his size,5'6 and short hand,(he is the smallest in ufc)still some ppl keep talking about overrated ufc posterboy...

I think that BJ Penn could beat Sherk if he went down in weight.

He is a boring lay-and-pray style fighter his only wins that were serious competitors were steve gomm, karo parisyan, nick diaz, and kenny florian (who also is overrated). Dont get me wrong he is a good fighter but NOT top 10 in either welterweight or lightweight. He wont hold the title very long as soon as someone serious gets a shot he will lose it.

I think he wil have someone who can beat him soon enought. In the UFC I think Jens Pulver, BJ Penn and Kenny Florian can all beat him if they revise their game a bit.
