Thread: Sean Sherk vs. Clay Guida @ UFN 21

Lightweights Clay Guida and Sean Sherk will look to bounce back from recent losses when they square off at UFC Fight Night 21 on March 21 in Denver, Colorado. The Northwest Indiana Times reported on Saturday that the matchup was in the works for the Versus-televised event.

Guida (25-11) emerged as a lightweight contender with three-straight wins from 2008 to 2009, including a victory over Nate Diaz, but has since dropped back-to-back fights to top 155-pounders Kenny Florian and Diago Sanchez.

Sherk (33-4-1), a former lightweight champion, is just 1-2 since returning to the UFC after serving a suspensions for steroids, dropping bouts to BJ Penn and Frankie Edgar while picking up a win over Tyson Griffin. “The Muscle Shark” had been scheduled to fight at UFC 108 earlier this month against Jim Miller, but a cut forced him to withdraw from the bout.

UFC Fight Night 21 also features Brandon Vera vs. Jon Jones and Anthony Johnson vs. John Howard.

Hoppas inte den fighten blir på en fight night. Den borde ju bli på en numrerad gala ju. Typ nästa tyskland eller england card. Chansen är ju ganska stor på att det kan bli en riktigt grym match.

De känns som att UFC har en väldigt väldigt bra matchup med dessa herrar

Hoppas verkligen att sherk kommer att utnyttja sin brottning i den här matchen, för hamnar det på backen har inte guida en chans... stående måste jag säga att sherk är bättre också men guida är vild och ett slag kan avsluta matchen även om sherk har en riktigt riktigt bra haka

Former lightweight champion Sean Sherk has been forced to withdraw from his matchup with Clay Guida scheduled for “UFC on Versus 1: Vera vs. Jones” for undisclosed reasons, and Shannon Gugerty has been tapped to replace Sherk and fight Guida at the March 21 event in Broomfield, Colorado, according to MMAjunkie.

Sherk (33-4-1) hasn’t fought since losing to Frankie Edgar last May, pulling out of an October bout with Gleison Tibau with a shoulder injury as well as a January fight against Jim Miller due to a cut.

Gugerty (12-4) has alternated wins and losses since debuting in the UFC in mid-2008, earning victories over Dale Hartt and Matt Grice, while dropping fights to Spencer Fisher and most-recently in November Terry Etim.

Guida (25-11) emerged as a lightweight contender with three-straight wins from 2008 to 2009, including a victory over Nate Diaz, but has since dropped back-to-back fights to top 155-pounders Kenny Florian and Diago Sanchez.

UFC on Versus 1 is headlined by Brandon Vera vs. Jon Jones and also features Junior dos Santos vs. Gabriel Gonzaga and Anthony Johnson vs. John Howard.

vääääldigt synd....

Varför är detta kort så mycket bättre än en vanlig UFN, är det för att det är första galan på Versus? jag antar att det är en kanal, det är som ett dåligt UFC card i stil med Sanches Vs stevensson
