Sean Sherk v Kenny Florian (Vacant Lightweight Title)
BJ Penn v (TBA)

Looks good on paper.

Florian turned down the fight saying he didnt have enough time to train.

I dont think he really deserves the shot anyway. Who's suposed to take it?

I'd like to see BJ Penn take the fight for the LW title. I think he could beat sherk.

Franklin vs. Anderson Silva should be good

Damn I expected them to build Silva up a little more and to give Franklin an easier fight coming back from injury. If theres someone in the UFC that has a chance of taking Franklin's title, it's Anderson Silva.

how about Spencer fischer getting that shot against Sean Sherk, I think that would be a war for the LW title.

Kenny Florian DID turn the fight down. But, that was when it was scheduled for UFC 62 and he still had a nagging back injury. He told them that he needed more time to rest. Looks like they gave him that time and he has now accepted. I'm not a big Florian fan but I honestly think he will win this fight.

Aww... I was kind of hoping BJ would take the fight and totally dominate the division. Is there any truth to the rumor that BJ is switching weight classes? If so is it LW or MW?

I am hoping that B.J.'s opponent on this show will be the winner of the Parisyan/Sanchez fight.
