It's probably even more likely we'll see KID fight in the UFC at 155 than BJ. He's pretty content to stay at 170 (and higher - see his likely participation in the Hero's 187 pound GP).

It's a little strange that half the list are guys that aren't even in the division, even excluding of course guys like Sherk who will know will be.

I can't believe how many Sean Sherk votes we're getting.. sure he's good but c'mon man we got Kid, Gomi and Penn in there.

My guess is most who voted for him don't even know who Gomi or Kid are.

Meh, I voted for Sherk because I highly doubt KID or Gomi will fight in the UFC, or that Penn will drop back to 155. I'm assuming the others are doing the same.

Gotta take Pulver on this one I mean he's the original champ, although Yamamoto would make it very interesting. Too bad the UFC will probably never be able to get ahold of him.

Ummm, Sherk has always said that he is a natural 155 pounder, and his only 2 losses are to the two best 170 fighters of all time.
