By Jason Benfari December 02, 2009"Sean Sherk was big for my career and my confidence. Being able to fight and beat a former world champ was great. Veach comes from a great camp and is big and strong. Good wrestling, power in his hands. I've definitely got my hands full.

Sean Sherk Might Take Legal Actions against CSAC

Sat, 17 May 2008 13:57:54 -0500

Sean Sherk doesn't want to fight in California anymore. He's had enough of their steroid testing bullshit. he said he wants to fight in all locations besides California. He still claims that he didnt take steroids, but he now claims that he might take legal action against the CSAC. I think Sean should let things go and take it as it is. Whether or not he did steroids, just dragging this on is going to hurt him more from a PR standpoint. Do you think he's going overboard? Anyone believe Sean at this point?
