Both of these guys have fought at WW, Sherk had only lost to GSP and Hughes, Guillard lost to some lesser fighters.sherdog said:two of the biggest lightweights

I'd have to disagree alsoChrisl972 said:Both of these guys have fought at WW, Sherk had only lost to GSP and Hughes, Guillard lost to some lesser fighters.
I think that both will be animals at LW, but I have to give the fight to Sherk and to be honest I think it would be a crushing win at that.
Every one that has fought Sherk had the reach advantage. You have to come up with something better than that.sherdog said:I'd have to disagree also
Guillard has a definite reach advantage... could be the Sherk vs GSP all over again
Look at how many of these guys are great strikers.liveson777 said:Melvin is a great striker along with the reach...you have to think about that come on:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I thought that was a pretty good one. that's why i put "definite".Chrisl972 said:Every one that has fought Sherk had the reach advantage. You have to come up with something better than that.
winning by strikes automatically makes one a good striker?Chrisl972 said:Look at how many of these guys are great strikers.

ZZtigerZZ81 said:I didn't see any great strikers on that list of opponents. Guillard isn't a great striker. Great strikers are Kid Yamamoto, BJ Penn, Liddell, Crocop, Anderson Silva, etc. People that can knock anyone out at anytime and have skill in that department. Penn is a bit of a stretch, but certainly a very good striker.
Diaz trained with the Gracie's his striking sucks. He just has a reach advantage ove everyone. He is the Tim Sylvia of the WW division.
Sylvia's striking sucks too. His technique is terrible and angles are even worse. He just jabs, jabs, jabs, then cross. Then backs up and does it again until his opponents try and move in on him then he jabs them away (5 feet away because of his gorilla arms).
agreed! in my opinion, Diaz is not a good striker. i too wouldn't go as far as saying that Gulliard's striking is great... but it a hell lot better than a lot of other fighters, making him at least a good striker.ZZtigerZZ81 said:I didn't see any great strikers on that list of opponents.

how can you say diaz's striking sucks, hes the same height as robbie lawler and lawler is a great striker and Diaz picked him apart, to say diaz has no strikes is just ignorantZZtigerZZ81 said:I didn't see any great strikers on that list of opponents.
