Sherk would have to chop off a leg to make featherweight.

LOL I'd be amazed to see Sherk at featherweight. How many people would he have to beat to get a LW title shot?

Wow my memory was a little hazy on sherk. Only losses are to Matt Hughes, GSP, Penn and Edgar. 36-4-1 with wins over Nick Diaz, Kenny Florian... Evan Dunham. Yeah I guess they can just throw him right into the mix. I hope BJ doesn't retire though, maybe he can come back to stop this short.

I would rather see Sherk against some new competition, not a re-match with BJ.  I'd like to see Sherk vs. Maynard, Guida, Miller, Bendo... there are a ton of top LW's for Sherk.

I wouldnt mind seeing Sherk/Miller or Sherk/Melendez. Those two fights would be sick.

Sherk vs Maynard, I would expect Gray to powerbomb Sean Sherk through the floor.

Sherk vs Siver would've been interesting, but Siver's moving down apparently.'

Sherk vs Melendez would be good too.

Sherk vs Jeremy Stephens would be awesome

I think Sherk vs Maynard would be very close.

Sherk would ragdoll Siver.

Maynard would absolutely dominate Sean Sherk. He's fought once in 2 and a half years and that was a beatin from Evan Dunham who its been realized since was not as good of a prospect as originally thought.

Styles make fights though.  Sherk could match Maynard's wrestling, and while Maynard is a little better of a striker, Sherk has a great chin.  I don't think Maynard would stop him.

I wish he fought more often nowadays. He looked great against Dunham (although that decision was HORRIBLE) who is very good. There are still a lot of lightweights that he can beat.

I would like to see Sherk back as well he is still very dangerous or at least he was the last time we saw him. I know he wanted to be injury free before returning and he wanted good fights because he's too old to waste his time with small fights.

Small fights = small money. Sherk still has the potential be a contender, but i don't see him beating guys like Ben Henderson, Grey Maynard, or Frankie in a rematch.

I would love to see Sherk fight Guida or Jim Miller. i think Sherk would beat Guida but loss to Miller.
