Penn vs. Sherk Preview

Blog post by stantheman13, 2 months ago

This is one fight I am really excited to see. BJ Penn is one of my favorite fighters to watch other than Anderson Silva and Shinya Aoki. BJ Penn is going to destroy Sean Sherk. I can’t wait. Penn has no respect for Sherk due to his history of performance-enhancer abuse. I can’t say I don’t like Sherk. I have respect for all fighters and I think Sherk is extremely talented, however he will be no match for the maestro Penn. Penn puts on a MMA clinic every time he fights. He is versatile, with heavy hands as well as one of the best ground games around. It’s hard to determine how Penn will win. I would have to go with a rear-naked second round. Although I wouldn’t be surprised if Penn finishes it by knockout; he really dislikes Sherk and will probably want to punish him. I think Dana White should bring on Shinya Aoki to fight Penn after this fight. That would be a war. I think Penn would win because he is a better striker, however Aoki is just so nimble, and the dexterity of his limbs is right up there with Penn. There are a lot of great fights on the horizon for Penn. It’s all just a matter of the UFC and Dana White making it happen. I foresee Penn solidifying his place as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters of all time. I think he would give Silva a run for his money. Dana make it happen!

the lightweight division

the lightweight division in the UFC is of such a high quality and is so deep, what an embarrassment of riches. I can’t wait for the likely contender to take on the winner of Penn-Sherk, which is Florian-Huerta. Huerta’s one of my favorite fighters in MMA. Never say quit, what heart that guy has. Can’t wait for that match as well! But in the Penn-Sherk fight, I can see gogo plata a distinct possibility given Penn’s flexibility as the finisher.
