That would be a pretty awesome fight. I think if Frank stuck to a proper gameplan he would win, but he doesnt normally do that (Cung Le fight), so I could see Lawler getting the decision or knockout.

Video was good, except for the fact that the last minute was just a black screen.

Shamrock’s cocky, he’s in the last leg of his career, he’s earned the right to pick and call his shots, Ortiz has earned it as well, lets hope they eventually fight.

adam youve got to give frank respect for standing with cung le and contrary to most peoples opinion i think frank was starting to get to le in that fight.i think lawler is one of the most improved mma fighters in the world but i think hes a little too green for frank and ill take frank by submission.

Lawler by knockout. Frank’s way beyond his prime and his recent fights have brought this fact to the forefront like never before.

I just can’t get over how cocky he is. I respect him but he is a jerk. Why would he ever consider fighting Ken other than just a big pay day at this point. Ken just lost to a guy with a 500 record. Bills must be getting tight for Kenny Boy to want to fight again.

This guy is a tool! He talks about wanting to fight everyone, but never ends up fighting anyone. Now he wants robbie? I will believe it when I see it!

Robiie is like the 4th person I have heard that Monkey Frank wants to fight, but he rarely backs it up. Him and Tito are perfect for each other! They belong together (tweedle D and Tweedle Bighead!)…Franks said he wants:
rematch with Le
Fight with his brother Ken
Rematch with Tito
and now Robbie

go away Frank, I stopped listen to your crap years ago! You bitched your way out of a fight with Renzo….I wish Re4nxo would have broke his arm!

he fought baroni and cung le who were both tough competitors

by brendan on Jul 22, 2008 9:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Baroni is a tough competitor? Please humor me some more!

He lost to Le last I checked.

What is next for Vitor Belfort? He was asked this very thing over at ExtremeCouture, and here is what he said.

“We have a contract with Affliction. I’m looking forward to them giving me good fights. I want to fight the best. I’d like to fight Frank Shamrock. That would be an exciting fight. It is something I would like to accomplish. He used to be one of the best. I think we are both still top 10 contenders. It will be an explosive fight, let’s get it on.

Rumble JOhnson’s agent is APPEALING the BS decision by mazzaggatti!

If he doesnt win this decision then the athletic comission is officially WORTHLESS!!! when the F will they start reprimanding their ref’s for the BS calls that they make?

The UFC is close to reaching a deal with sPIKE to broadcast UFC 89 for Free!

Also, there has been discussions about adding silva vs. Cote (title fight) to the UFC 89 card as well, especially after Saturday night when Silva’s fight pulled in 3.8 million viewers, a fight card with Silva defending his title on it seems very appealing to SPIKE TV!

John, do you have a life?

by halljam2 on Jul 22, 2008 5:51 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

With all of this free time you have and so forth maybe you should be spending it on making your own website, no offense I’m being serious here

Not doubting it, but where are hearing this?

by Jrandolph on Jul 22, 2008 6:04 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Thanks for the updates, john.

What Free time? Its 7:45 pm and I am still at my schools library waiting for my next class to start at 8:00

Lawyler will knock the cocky out of him.

Frank is a loser and is completely overrated.

overrated? he’s not even rated.

frank shamrock sucks!

by Ramon on Jul 23, 2008 12:32 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I think he should at least win 1 or 2 fights before challenging Lawler. Put him up against Villasenor or something.
