Different card, but I'd much rather bridge jump with Shawn Sherk at -321 ... I can't imagine Florian having a better chance vs Sherk than Shamrock does vs Ortiz.

the more i think about it, the more i consider sherk something of a lock here.

Florian has a lot of fluke ways to win this fight, but I might be siding with you more and more. Sherk has 2 losses which came from Georges St. Pierre and Matt Hughes. Florian lost to Diego in convincing fashion. I'd say Sherk and Diego have similar fighting styles and would go after Florian the same way. (Sherk likely won't eat a few before taking Florian down though.)

This is a grooming fight for Sherk to get a shot at the belt again. I'm not sure where he fits in because Diego and GSP are going to get shots soon also.
