Sean Sherk separated his shoulder and won't be able to fight Gleison Tibau at UFC 104 on October 24 in LA. There has been some controversy about this, because Sherk failed to show up for a random CSAC drug test. However, his manager Monte Cox says that Sean didn't keep the appointment because he was already injured and had no need to apply for a license.
Either way, Josh Neer has stepped up to be the replacement. Neer lost a decision in a very tough fight against Kurt Pellegrino at UFC 101 and will be looking to rebound against Tibau. Tibau too is coming off a loss, a split decision against Melvin Guillard at the TUF 9 finale in June.
This is a very good match up and should be a great fight. Both fighters have something to prove.
