Re: Ken Shamrock vs Kimbo Slice
Most people don't remember the great submission artist Ken Shamrock especially during his pancrase years. Unfortunately some one convinced Ken he was a great striker. The guy has good power and a great chin but his striking never really amounted to anything more than brawling. When he won it was usually b/c he was simply tougher than the other guy not b/c his superior skill. Its too bad. Had Ken stayed more true to his submission background I think he would have won more fights both in the middle and at the end of his career. If he took a submission mind set into the fight with Kimbo I'd give him 25% chance. The guy was awesome with knee/ankle locks and heel hooks. That being said he will try to trade blows with Kimbo and either get blasted or be so gassed by the 2nd round his corner will throw in the towel again.
