I am not a huge BJ fan but I think if he does win, it will be early in the fight and with the use of his BJJ. Sherk is a freak of nature and if you remember when he fought Franca, he has a brick head (took 3 or 4 knees) and lets not forget he was able to get out of a few tight gilloutiens. The writer of this article predicted a TKO in the fourth round by BJ??? When was the last time you saw BJ in the fourth round? Actually, when was the last time you saw BJ in the 2nd or 3rd round looking good? It's almost as if his corner gives him Krispy Kreeme instead of water inbetween the 1st and 2nd rounds. Even when he beat Stevenson, he looked as if he was trying to breathe through every hole in his body. In my opinion, I see Sherk winning one of 2 ways: TKO/ref stoppage in the 3rd or 4th round or unnanimous Dec if BJ can handle Sherks relentless pace for 5 rounds.
