I just caught the replay of this last night and WOW! That was a great MMA fight, both guys stood and traded a lot, and beat the hell outta each other. Both are cocky, but tough, proud motherfukers, fukin Baroni refused to tap out and thus got chocked out. Shamrock is just too skilled for him overall, but still those two put on an awesome fight. I'd like to see Frank kick Cung Lee's ass next.
That fight was AWESOME. I couldn't believe when Shamrock pointed at him then acted like he was going to sleep... 2 seconds later, BAM shamrock almost put him out. Glorious.
CC. It was very entertaining. Those are two tough sons of bitches.Quote:

After he beats Cung Lee's ass, I'd love to see him in there against Rich Franklin or Anderson Silva.Quote:

cung le is unstoppable, also frank shamrock has to be like at least 39 by now, he was around since the early days of pancrase

Yes I am part of that group, hell I'm the President of that group. It was BS for him to be suckerin guys into fighting him who had no prior expierence in his pussy little way of fighting, where he scissor kick takes you down and does all that nonsense. I cannot wait for someone to take him down and either submit him or ground and pound him, preferably ground and pound him into submitting. I think Frank can do either and will if they fight.Quote:

I'd like to see Cung in K1, ISKA or any type of top level kickboxing/muay thai to see how he stands up to world class fighters. His metal in MMA has yet to be tested. From what I've seen Cung is a good fighter and I won't be suprised if he wears a belt someday, but as of yet he hasn't been in with a fighter near the cailber of Frank. I'd feel pretty confident that at this point in both their careers that Frank would win.
I used to watch Cung Le in the late 90's. He was a beast, man. MMA is a whole different ballgame, though. Le has tore through his first 3 opponents, but none of those guys tried to take him down. The first two fighters I didn't expect to challenge his ground skills, but this last fight was rediculous. Even the announcers were screaming "WTF?" The guy went for two takedowns tops... and both of those he tried to take him down up high (Cung Le will throw your A%# if you try that). Not one shot on the legs. I'm thinking Shamrock would expose a lack of ground knowledge on Cung Le. If Shamrock doesn't try to trade with Le I say it's an easy night for him. I hope they don't throw Le in there with someone like Shamrock just yet. Let him get some experience under his belt. Let some lesser opponents take him down and roll around a bit. Just my 2 cents
thanx for rubbin it in my face i didnt get to tsee the fight anyone got it?
did you check daily motion? I usually can find fights there

I'm not sure if this is accurate, but Frank left the game after he was 5-0. Undefeated and on the top. Both are from San Diego, if they fight Frank could be Cung's 5th win undefeated also, just like how Frank was. It could be history repeating itself, this time not in favor of Frank, because I think Cung at this age is better. I can't see Cung knocking out Frank though, I see it Cung winning a decision. Showing off his accurate kick combos and strikes, while Frank display his age and legendary heart.
Great fight, too bad Baroni tested positive for steroids
why is it too bad that Baloni tested positive for roids???Quote:

I assume most MMAers are on roids anyway , that bulky look alot of them have... just doesn't seem natural
well you know what they say when you assume....All pro atheletes in todays age of sports are suspect if you ask me, but considering that all MMA events in the US test before every fight either most MMA fighters are beating the system or aren't usingQuote:
