Penn vs Sherk in november announced at the post conference. insane :run:
:run:
thats gonna be a dope fight. I think Penn's going to take it. His BJJ is on another level compared to Franca. His standup is no slouch either so Sherk definitely will have his hands full. I wonder what happened to moving up to welterweight?

Hey Phat where did you find Tito's post fight interview? I looked on sherdog but they only had Florian, Lytle and Franca. Sherk definitely ate some knees last night. I thought he was done when he ate that first one:eek5: I'm glad he wasnt because then we'd be forced to watch Penn/Franca:ugh:

Yea i cant believe they didnt call it. Usually the refs are so quick to jump in they dont get a chance to fight back. I can see stopping it when the guy isnt defending himself but sometimes they are taking punches but intelligently defending themselves and the refs jump in.
Its
Ultimate Fighting. Let them go for a bit unless he isnt defending himself. I'm as surprised as you. I cant believe he didnt pounce back on Nog. Plus he gave him a full minute into the 2nd round to get his bearings back:slap:

I hope to see a much better Franklin at the re-match. Hermes landed some knees though, I thought they were thrown like kicks. Sherk is definitely feeling those this morning.
Ortiz/Evan sucked. I expected more. Too bad for the 2nd round or else Tito would have pulled it out. I honestly dont think Rashad won the 3rd round but I guess the takedown in the closing seconds won i for him:dunno:Silva was awesome. He amazes me the more I see him. He doesnt look like a 185 pounder to me but he can fight. Sherk may have a dentist appointment today to check those teeth:chuckles: He definitely felt those but props to him for fighting through.

Me neither but apparently but people were sayin it happened before the Tito fight and that the fighters looked over and you could hear the crowd like something happened? Apparently there was a delay while UFC doctors worked on the guy. I wanted to go to this fight too:nervous:
