    I THINK THEY SHOULD PIT EDGAR AGAINST SHERK, but i think sherk would destroy him…

  2. Patrick says:

    Yeah Sherk would eat Edgar, if Edgar had trouble with Gray’s wrestling… Sherk would be all over Edgar the entire time.

  3. bjjdenver says:

    At least Sherk wouldn’t have a height advantage, lol. Maynard looked huge compared to Edgar.

    Sherk says he wants to fight on this card in his home state and Edgar needs an opponent.

    I say let ‘em have at it!

  4. MOD says:

    IM A JERSEY BOY AND I DONT LIKE EDGAR, I DONT LIKE SHERK EITHER
    LET THEM KILL EACHOTHER….BUT THE WOULD JUST LAY ON EACHOTHER FOR 15 MINUTES

  5. Shaun says:

    edgar is a midget and sherk looks like a fucking pint sized jay cutler

  6. TCB says:

    What’s not to like about Edgar. He’s a classy guy who goes out and fights. I say his stand up beats sherk. And it would be a good ground fight
