Florian already turned down the fight, he said he wouldn't have enough time to train for it.

he said he turned it down for the UFC 62 card, he just fought Stout, while sherk had been training for this for awhile. I do believe Florian said he would fight Sherk if he had more time to train for the LW title fight.

This thread looks familiar.

Kinda early for Silva to be getting a title shot imo. And i hope Penn fights at LW but he wants to stay at WW last i heard.

I believe that Silva was brought in for that fight really.

I think Silva should fight The Crow first before getting a title shot. That would be a slug fest.

I don't know about The Crow. Maybe Marquardt and the winner takes on Tanner then Franklin. The middleweights are so weak right now in UFC, almost as weak as heavyweight.

Intellectual 07-26-2006 01:34 PM

hopefully florian destroys serk

doublea 07-26-2006 01:35 PM

I think Sean is too strong for Ken Flo.
