![]() | Ryu, No, Ken beat Fujita in every way. Towards the end of the fight he just tied him up and stalled. But Fujita wasn't doing anything. After the towel was thrown in Fujita was asking him why he stopped. He looked more surprised than anyone. Ken seemed to just totally gas out. But maybe he broke his hand or something. MA, Did you see the fight? Before I saw it I thought maybe it was a work. But after seeing it I'd have to say that the only way it was a work is if Ken forgot that it was supposed to be a fake fight and then suddenly remembered and thew in the towel to avoid knocking him out. |

![]() | Fujita's mouthpiece fell out from the force of Ken's blows! No way it can be a work. He gassed plain and simple. Ken even said so on Eyada. Ken WAS dominating the fight, then as the fight progressed, his shots got a little bit weaker. Then towards the end, he just gave up and hung on. |

| If he wanted to do works he would have stayed in the WWF. This loss really hurts his reputation, losing to a B-level fighter like Fujita. Damn that guy can take a beating though. Ken's "gameness" definitely failed him. I guess Fujita took away his "warrior spirit". |

| Bau13: I knew some wise-ass would take exception to that comment. I didn't say I could TAP Fujita, and he IS a goddamn monster, but that doesn't make him an elite submission fighter. Yes, he's better than me. Any halfway-decent NHB fighter damn well ought to be. You may now resume your Thought-policing activities. |

![]() | Ken was having major problems training for this fight. From what I heard out of Dallas he was having dizzy spells in training and many of his guys were worried about him. The confidential word was if Ken didn't finish him quick, he'd lose. I found this out right before they flew out for Japan. I promised not to say anything until after it was over and will not give out my source of information because I don't want to cause him problems with Ken, but Shamrock had dire physical problems before he left. In the shape I heard he was in, which obviously was straight stuff, Ken was crazy to get in the ring. Hawk

![]() | That was no worked fight. Kenny shot his wad and was left w/ nothing at the end of round 1. Pure & simple. He was throwing bombs on Fujita all night. Fujita's only skill seems to be taking punishment like some old junkyard dog. His main expertise is in blocking punches & kicks w/ his face. I can't believe he is given the respect that he is by so many.

| Novice | when i was reading the play by play coverage on the underground it sounded like a work, they said "kens hitting him hard........BUT OH NO!!! the punches have no effect, fujita's asking for more!!!" so i had my suspicions....but then i saw the match, ken does rock fujita with some huge punches, no way was that a work, I think although ken has now improved his striking so he is now a good striker, he has not had much of a chance to use the striking in a match so when he did he gassed, simple as that. or i hope so........i hate works.
