I think just the fact that Florian knew he couldnt handle Sherk in August and needed more time proves he knows in his heart he will lose. "Kenflo"s current impressive wins are over one dimensional strikers that dont have tons of strength. Sherk is an animal and can strike, as shown vs diaz, and is an incredible wrestler. I cant imagine Kenny possibly standing a chance.

Yeah, if he were still fighting at 185lbs. Look at how Stevnson was owned at 170. When fighters like Kenny are naturally lighter and have to come onto TUF and fight heavier simply becasue that is the only spot for them, they do so and for Kenny to even make the finals at a weight so much higher than his natural weight is insane.

Kenny is no pushover and at 155 he is an animal. The problem is that Skerk is going to be even more of an animal at 155 and like I said before, I don't see Sherk loosing the belt for 4-5 years unless he retires or is injured and is forced to give up the belt.

He has nice combos but at 170 he had no power whatsoever as he was hitting Diaz with combo after combo and it wasn;t doing shit to Diaz so as far as destroying Kenny, it is not happening, keeny is by far the better striker and certainly the harder hitter of the two (don't let Sherk's build fool you, he should have much more snap and power on his strikes than he actually does, maybe at 155 he will have the power he should for that build of his).

Sherk will keep the fight on the ground and it will end via decision in Sherk's favor as will the 20 other tittle defenses by Sherk.

If Sherk tried to stand with Ken-flo, he would die, it's really that simple. Sherk knows this, there is no fuggin way Sherk opts to trade strikes with Kenny. The Kenny we have been seing was above his normal weight and when he went down to his natural weight he dominated a world class striker, he would've done the same thing to Homminik. Kenny is the most improved TUF fighter as of yet, he has surpassed Swick, Forrest and Rashad. Sherk will not hurt Kenny, he can take punishment and those combos against Diaz were weak, Sherk should have much more power for being such a muscular guy, I am not impressed with his striking but his wrestling is extremely dominant and Keny will fall victim to it.

The 155lb division is going to be a battle between kenny, Sherk and Pulver but I predict a sleper to be a huge contender and that is Melvin, the guy is a freak of nature like GSP, he's that athletic and is a great striker and has super-human strength. I look for him to cause chaos at 155.

What about Fisher?He's a great exciting young athlete and I can see him having success at 155.
