Not 100% accurate but it can't hurt going into his appeal.

Yeah it's there or there abouts. They can be fooled but it takes a lot of training, or one cold, emotionless dude.

There surely must be something wrong with CroCop. He just hasn't looked like his normal self since joining the UFC, & now he's went AWOL.

This could mean that Sherk vs. Penn is back on the cards??

Awesome. Good on him. That would mean the only explanations are either a false test (perhaps it was tampered with) or maybe even someone tampering with / changing sherks supplements. Can you take steroids in pill or liquid form?

Im glad to see this cuz I like Sherk but lie detector tests are honestly way outdated and shouldn't ever be used in any legal cases at all. There's tons of resources out there to help with controlling the heart rate.

I thought it wasn't to do with heart rate because people get nervous when taking a lie detector test anyway...

Well done Sherk, I am one of very few on this site that has gone out there and bashed Sherk straight away before the appeal.

I believe this will go a long long way into them finding him innocent.

Bring on Sherk Vs BJ.

Are you guys kidding? Polygraphs are highly controversial tools and are not all that accurate in most applications.

How about the test was innaccurate or misinterpreted? Who conducted the test? What's thier background? Did they have any vested interest? Were they bribed to interpret the data in a favourable manner? The problem with a polygraph test is that you have no baseline comparison. They are useful, but hardly conclusive. Cmon guys, how about a little critical thinking on your part rather than just swallowing whatever you're fed.

"[Polygraph screening] is completely without any theoretical foundation and has absolutely no validity...the diagnostic value of this type of testing is no more than that of astrology or tea-leaf reading."
