Default Sherk and Franca both test positive...

I find it hilarious that both of them tested positive. They were both suspended until July of 2008. Can't say I'll miss either of them in the octagon though.

Not really suprising though...the message that they are gonna get caught seems to be pretty slow getting through doesn't it?

It certainly does.

lol. No kidding, huh?

This might seem cruel but in a way I'm glad they got caught. Sherk is a phenomenal athlete but I can't stand it when fighters cut so much weight and just stick with LnP. There are a lot of good LW's out there that I'd rather see fighting for a title.

I'm not surprised at all, and can't say I will miss either of them. Apparently their not the only ones though. Looking through some MMAweekly articles a lot of other fighters are being caught.
