Sherks standup compared to BJ's

01-25-2008, 02:19 PM

I was wondering what you guys think about Sherks compared to BJ's?

I dont think this fight will be played out on the feet, but if it does, who would you pick?

BJ

sherk's got decent boxing technique but that does nothing for you if you have T-Rex reach

I don't think Sherks standup is very good at all. I heard him say he thought his standup was better, not sure why he thinks so. Sherk is just a peek a boo defense with wild haymakers and a silly low kick thrown in from time to time.

I've seen BJ hurt opponents standing. I can't say the same for Sherk.

BJ will easily win the stand-up war.

Thats because he didn't fall for Nicks arm waving faints. Whenever Nick did that Sherk threw as I recall.

Oh my. is there really a comparison? Sherks arms are like 1 foot long. How good can his standup be?

If Sherk stands he's gonna get dropped, BJ has always had good hands and with his recent improvement they look even better.

true but diaz' standup defense has always been to eat punches to the face

and his standup offense has been to barrage his opponent with arm punches which does play right into sherk's hands
