russow has the same problem as griggs. no one wants to fight him. lets get chad griggs as the replacement. the light bulb just went off in my head! griggs does not have a fight lined up. perfect matchup.

I couldn't even think of someone to replace Herman with. Anyone?

i gave you one. chad griggs. 11-1. 6 fight win streak. five of his last six fights have ended in ko/tko. he is a finisher. it would be an exciting fight. lets face it SF is kinda kaput (as far as the big dogs go). leave(SF) to the up and comers and Female MMA.

Who knows what the grounds of his contract is with Showtime/Strikeforce. That is a viable option though.

Hermen was taken out of UFC 136 because he tested positive on Marijuana.

Seems like all the ufc HWs are either already locked up in fights or have just came off a fight recently and wont be ready. I like wolfmans idea of a matchup with griggs.

If Dave Herman gets caught with Marijuana, how does Nick Diaz get around this stuff?

Im laughing at Herman for thinking second hand smoke made him test positive.. He was probably smoking out with Mike Whitehead and his Team Quest teamate Matt Lindland..

If Herman says he didn't smoke it I believe him.

maybe pee wee is a rastafari and its part of his religion, thats at least what i tell my job... super sad about this, herman is a legit prospect and this slows down all the momentum he built up after KOing that giant einemo. Luckily the normal suspension for the lords sweet sweet cheeba is only like 30 days.
