View Full Version : Sherk released from UFC.
Bluecifer 05-21-2003, 02:29 PM I stole this from MMA weekly. I think this sucks, I like Sherk.
Sherk told MMAWeekly last night "It's puzzling for me. I just signed a three fight deal and was looking forward to furthering my career, now I get dropped for the first loss in my career? Doesn't make sense to me."
Curly Howard 05-21-2003, 02:34 PM That's lame...He's a great figter and gave Hughes all he wanted.
Bluecifer 05-21-2003, 02:40 PM Agreed. Sherk is one of the best welters out there IMO. I was looking forward to seeing him fight again.
VulgarTheClown 05-21-2003, 02:44 PM THATS SOME BULL****!
Curly Howard 05-21-2003, 02:44 PM I think it's was cause he looked and fought like Huges...It was probably a marketing thing which really sucks if it was.
Bluecifer 05-21-2003, 02:49 PM It's funny but I like Sherk more than Hughes, don't know why, I just do.
The Ensanity 05-21-2003, 02:57 PM THIS IS ****ED...maybe they think he would dominate and just didnt want the two wrestlers in the same promotion...First they jipp him by standing the fight up to early twice...now this
Great job by the UFC, like always. Keep up the good work ie getting rid of your good fighters.

True. Sherk is all heart. There is just no quit in that man.
Squezze 05-22-2003, 03:15 PM LAME. Uber lame.
Fallout 05-22-2003, 05:50 PM Like I said, I doubt its that cut and dry.
There is something to this
Prince 05-22-2003, 07:06 PM dana white said on the underground that it is not because of his fight but because of some behind the scenes stuff that he won't talk about on a public forum.

BS he's just saying that so he doesnt get flamed.
I think they just want to preserve Matt Hughes and promote the hell out of him. He's been the only constant as of late, and if the UFC wants a wider fan base--they need a steady champion. If Sherk stays---he'll eventually beat Hughes and then lose to the next guy, and then the game of "hot potato" with the belts will start and no "new fans" will get to know anyone.
Or ... Sherk ****ed it up for himself by pissing on Dana's shoe.:ghost:
Rock Dog 05-26-2003, 12:43 AM They shoulda kept him around and moved him up to MW
Big_Papa 05-27-2003, 03:05 PM He couldn't beat Hughes last time and he wouldn't beat him next time if there ever was a next time.

you must have not watched his performance against Hughes at the last UFC. Sherk = ****ing warrior. He is the only person to go the distance with Hughes as of late. If he studied Hughes and learned from his loss... he would become victorious over him. just my opinion.
Tha Playa 05-27-2003, 03:22 PM I agree with Haru and Dogg on this one.
