This is Round 3 of the 32 man Lightweight Tournament to determent the best LW in the world and to have fun debating some fights that we might not think of otherwise. These fights will be under UFC Rules, Testing and Cage. They will have 3 months to train for each other in this 3 round fight.

Yea I could have went either way with the Huerta Sherk fight. I might even be thinking that Huerta should win now. Sherk may have lost a step and Huerta could be getting hungry again after his recent loss. I dont know.

I agree Humble, I know asugar will go ape shit over that but that was tough one. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold on to what I "think" Sherk can still do. If he continues to think he's a boxer with a 12" reach, he's not even top 10 in the UFC. If he goes back to boring the fans and being one of the best ground n pounders, I think he's top 3 in the UFC. I'm just not sure what I get with Sherk today. And I think that was the best Huerta I have seen to date.

Yup, Huerta looked pretty good despite the loss and you are right Sherk needs to focus his game to ground n pound again, I personally dont get bored watching that style, Tito Ortiz and Matt Hughes were masters at GnP.

Speaking of Hughes and Sherk if Sherk could move up again to WW I would love to see a rematch with those two. Both on the downslide of there career.

On that one, honestly I think it'd be a close fight but I think Melendez would have the upper hand at the lighter weight. Diego loses a lot of power not being a WW and I think Melendez will either win by decision or a late KO in the 3rd rnd. Melendez hasn't been stopped in any fight, only losing two decisions career long and I thought it was a closer fight than a unanimous loss to Josh Thompson TBH. I just don't think Diego has the necessaries to compete at the higher levels in the LW division. I think he'll loose early to BJ Penn in their fight, and don't get me wrong - I hope I'm WAY wrong about this but I don't think so right now.
