I don't hate Sherk, but I hated the annoying love/fans that he got. Before the steroid incident he was considered by some as #1 in the lightweight division. And not that he isn't a great fighter but it gets annoying.

His wrestling and dedication to training is amazing. His ground control and takedowns are awesome to watch.

Him getting caught for steroids is meaningless to me. Theres plenty of others that will be caught too, and plenty of top athletes using steroids. It's reality.

Well, that leads me to believe he is not very smart bc if you are going to do it, yet it has no effect, then whats the point? Thats like people who drink A beer. I dont get it

no matter how hard you cry most PAY-per-view buyers dont like falling asleep during their PAY-per-views theyve just bought . If weve paid for a ppv we have a right to opinions.

I want finishes . i dont give a fuck a bout skills . thats human nature . If sherk was smashin folks into ref stoppages , id be all for it .

sherk , kos , evans dont belong on PPV .


edit .................i forgot about the "juice" , i could care less . i just want excitement .

I just don't like to watch him fight. It's nothing against the guy but I don't find his style exciting IMO.

Think about this haters. Sherk is in a gym like 24/7 so the odds of him or one of his training or workout partners not being educated about steroids is pretty close to zero. Deca is a very popular steroid. Sherk had to of known about how long it stays in your system. Couple this with the fact that there was very low levels (compared to people who took the steroid for performance enhancement purposes and got caught) of nandralone in his system (why would he do so little, it would have no noticeable effects other then testing positive) and it all adds up to that Sherk didn't cheat. He may have been screwed over by some supliment, screwed over by his juice dealer (maybe sherk got an unwanted mix) or he just found a way to make his body produce more nandralone, but it makes no sense that he would take the chance of testing positive for an amount of steroids that would practically make no difference. So common sense tells us that Sherk is most likely innocent of taking deca.
Next is the shit talking about him lnping. Sherk did not stop for one second in his relentless attack on franca. He constanly worked for position while franca had to work for one desperation move after another because of Sherk constantly gaining better position. This is not the definition of lnp. Sherk never stopped working. It seems to me that the ones that say he is boring and that he lnps are either uneducated new fans or they simply are not true MMA fans and they would rather see kickboxing with small gloves.
In conclusion I think that Sherk gets way too much hate for such an amazing fighter.


Maybe Sherk should be in a BJJ class 24/7 and learn some Subs.

I could care less about Sherk's hardcore workouts. What counts is what happens in the cage.

Anderson Silva might not be able to make it halfway through Rich Franklin's workouts. But Silva will whip Franklin in the cage 10 times out of 10.

Am I the only one who realizes that Sherk HAS to workout that hard just to be competitive?

I am with you this Sherk bashing crap is getting old, I think he got shafted and the only reason the California committee didn't drop the charges was to keep from making themselves look bad and now he had to live with it. I plain sucks.
