Sean Sherk vs. Evan Dunham at UFC 119

News

Even though the card is more than two months away, UFC 119 is already looking to be very solid. Added to the card earlier today was Lil Nog vs. Ryan Bader (co main-event) and Big Nog vs. Frank Mir II (main-event). You can now add Sean Sherk and Evan Dunham to the mix, as MMA Weekly announced the fight on Wednesday.

Sean Sherk, out of action since May 2009, is looking to make a big impact in his return to the octagon by defeating the undefeated Evan Dunham. A win is necessary for both men as Sherk needs to prove he is still relevant with the ever-evolving lightweight division and Dunham needs to prove his all-around skills by beating one of the best wrestlers in the UFC.

The bout is expected to be televised on the pay-per-view, likely right before the Lil Nog/Bader fight.
