To Skwirrl….

If you had seen Ken after the fight, even in the interview he gave from the lockerroom about 15 mins after the KO, he was all over the place, could hardly string a few words together. It was pretty horrible to watch, he was less out of it after the beating he took in the first Tito fight, and THAT was a beating.

I think alot of you think Ken is worse off than he really is. I understand many of you aren’t boxing fans, but if you were you’d see somebody that is truly damaged from fights. Ken doesn’t slur his words and is still articulate enough to sell a fight. The losses everybody points to are Tito – well as much as I hate Tito he’s still a top 20 LHW, Saku where he was robbed, and the Buzz Berry dive debacle. He damn sure didn’t get hurt taking a dive against Berry. Kenny is fine

After the debacle that is the legend in Ken Shamrock, he should announce this rumor of Shamrock vs Shamrock as a true retirement.

Zach: In response to your information that Jeremy Lappen is a corporate lawyer, I think that is the case with a lot of “powerful people,” they get too arrogant for their own good.

I hope Frank doesn’t kill his adoptive big bro. This matchup is a lot more dangerous for Ken than the Kimbo fight and we could very well see another mma death. I don’t know how state athletic commissions still allow Ken to fight especially considering the discrepancy between Frank’s and Ken’s skill level right now. Tito vs Ken II and III were big mismatches but I’m sure Ken’s health has gotten worse since then.

Yeah, Lappen’s just…I don’t know. There’s not a lot they can do to salvage this whole situation.

I like the idea of EXC working with Strikeforce and airing the fight on CBS. Does EXC still owe Strikeforce some cooperation due to that lawsuit regarding Frank from way back when?

Josh Gross is pretty much the one guy covering the sport that people would be LEAST likely to believe misquoted you. He should’ve just said that he misspoke.
