Semmy Schilt coming back to MMA fights

From CVTA:

Quote:
With just two days before their mega-card in Ariake Coliseum, HERO`S just added another heavyweight super fight to round up eleven matches for this August 5th Middleweight and Light Heavyweight tournament extravaganza.

HERO`S committee has announced the inclusion of UFC and PRIDE veteran Semmy Schilt against Korean Olympic judoka Min Soo Kim in a Heavyweight superfight.

On an interesting note, this will mark Schilt's first MMA fight since 2004 when he was defeated by Sergei Kharitonov in PRIDE. For the last two years, Schilt has dedicated himself to K-1 standing rules matches where he took the K-1 World Grand Prix championship last year.

I think, that Semmy is just too tall, and clumsy too be in MMA. He is great standing up, but once he gets taken down"and it just seems like he goes down very easy". he has a difficult time getting back up, or doing any damage on the floor

I'd love to see Schilt back again under mma rules, but I think he'd be better off in K-1.

Semmy should come back to the UFC and add some spice to the sad HW division.Maybe K1 would allow him since BJ Penn was able to.
