Sean Sherk's suspension appeal postponed again until Nov. 13th
Sean Sherk had a hearing today in front of the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) to appeal the suspension handed down to him following his positive test for steroids after defeating Hermes Franca at UFC 73. Sherk has maintained his innocence from the beginning and has even taken a lie detector test and apparently passed when asked if he knowingly took steroids. Apparently this information and other information was submitted to the CSAC last week but none of the commissioners had seen it. The appeal hearing has been postponed again to allow the CSAC to review the information.
The worst part of all this is that it still leaves the UFC lightweight division and BJ Penn up in the air. BJ Penn is rumored to be fighting at UFC 79 but his next fight was also supposed to be for the lightweight title. Dana White has said he won't strip Sherk until the end of his appeal. The good news to come out of the hearing is that Phil Baroni's suspension was reduced to 6 months and is retroactive. He will be able to fight in December. This is also good news for Sean Sherk as he could likely have his suspension reduced and be retro active to July. He could possibly be ready to fight BJ Penn in January.
