Muscle Shark title bout set for Saturday

Filed under: General Archive

Sean Sherk will defend his UFC lightweight title for the first time on Saturday night at ARCO Arena. The 155-pound, Minnesota-based fighter will take on Hermes Franca, a Brazilian born Jujitsu specialist at UFC 73: Stacked. (For a list of bars that will be showing the pay-per-view event go here.)


Sherk won the title in October with a bloody unanimous decision over Kenny Florian, improving his fight resume to 33-2-1. But he's been on the shelf for the last nine months nursing a shoulder injury. Greg Nelson, Sherk's trainer, reports that the champ is ready to defend his belt. "So far everything is going very good," he says via cell phone from Sacramento. "I think he's going to do fantastic."
