Sorry, I just can't see "Kenflo" surviving the mauling he's going to get from Sherk.
On paper, I agree. That said, Florian has been a monster at 155. He is a phenom on the ground. His BJJ resume is top notch.
Sherk packs about as much muscle and power into a 155 lb. frame as is possible. I could see the fight going like the Diego vs Florian fight where Florian got smashed to pieces in two minutes. But Florian was fighting way out of his comfort range at 185 then. He looks awesome at 155. I'd pick Sherk but I don't think that I would but money on it.
The UFC's LW division is looking incredible with Sherk, Florian, Pulver, Guillard, Stevenson, Franca, Hominick, Fisher, etc.
