It’s pretty sad to see how far Ken Shamrock has fallen. Even before his recent suspension, he has been a fighter with almost no chin left since 2006 or earlier, and yet he has still been taking fights (and losing fights) in the years since then, just to pay the bills. More and more older MMA fighters are going to fit that description, and it’s a sad thing to see.
Ken Shamrock vs. Jimmy Jacobs? Fuck yes! That is….some card they have there.
I hate ICP, and always have, and I never liked their Psychopathic Records cohorts, but I guess I am kind of surprised that Blaze Ya Dead Homie is performing, because I could have sworn he left Psychopathic Records. Whatever, he sucks all the same.
To Ivan: Maybe he’s just money hungry, collecting every last pennies he can from the sport. He’s not going to become a commentator, he will never be a great coach. So if he wants to have a great living it’s now or never. It’s not necessary about paying the bills to survive.
When my old band was on tour back in the early 2000’s we went to Abdullah’s restaurant in Atlanta. It was awesome. He was cool as hell and took pics with all of us.
Wow, that’s actually a surprisingly solid card. I thought all ICP did was hardcore matches, but I’d actually want to see that show. Of course I’d never attend it live since I wouldn’t be caught dead at anything ICP did. But I’d order the DVD online under an assumed name. Anything involving Scott Hall wrestling intoxicated fat and gray is a must-see trainwreck to top it off.
How did ICP get Ice Cube and some other big names to perform at their event? I guess when you have a lot of fanatic juggalos paying to go to the event you can afford it.
I can’t stand ICP and their juggalo fans at all. That is probably the worst subculture out there. Worse than goth, emo and ravers. Considering how much ICP and the juggalos think they are hardcore, I’m surprised that they invited Vanilla Ice to this event (yes I’m aware he’s doing rap-rock now instead of pop rap). Normally, people would think that associating with Vanilla Ice would be an embarrassment (even though it’s clear people were buying his album in droves 18-19 years ago. lol)
