In a new interview with PunchDrunkGamer.com, free agent fighter Hermes Franca not only expressed an interest in a rematch with former UFC lightweight champion Sean Sherk, but also a fight against the current UFC lightweight champion, B.J. Penn:

PDG: Your fight with Sean was a close decision; would you like a rematch?

Hermes: I don’t want to challenge anyone but of course I would fight him again. In my opinion, that fight should have been ruled a no contest. So like I said, I’m not challenging anyone but I would definitely welcome a rematch.

PDG: Okay, so not challenging anyone…….who out there would you like to fight because you think that it would be a great fight for the fans?

Hermes: When I come back, I want to fight the best and right now BJ Penn is the best. We are great friends and good partners but right now he is number one and he has the belt. So if I had a the chance to fight him, I would take the fight. No offense to BJ, like I said he is a really good friend but he has the belt.
Franca has absolutely no chance of getting another title shot any time soon, the only reason that Sherk has gotten an auto shot is because he is one of Dana's boys, that no matter what he does Dana has his back. Franca doesn't have that liberty.

Well Sherk also got a title shot because he never technically lost the belt he got stripped, Hermes on the other hand...meh.

Yes he was stripped because of taking roids, how does that warrant getting an auto re-shot?

haha no but it's all the shit that Sherk went through to try and prove his innocence so there are plenty of members of the fight community that believe him innocent and the rightful champ and since BJ never beat Sherk to gain the belt it's a matchup that needs to occur to prove the rightful champ at this point in the lightweight division.

Dude, you only need to look at the man to see that, that is not a natural physique.

There are body building contests with men who don't take any drugs at all, like they are monitored 24/7 to make sure they are clean and have nothing in them and most of them look more jacked than Sherk.

Yes but they spend 24/7 on their bodies, Sherk has to fit in all of his different kinds of training into his schedule.
