Ken Shamrock vs. SAKURABA

danfaggella · 10-17-2005, 04:18 PM

I read that Ken Shamrock and Sakuraba are fighting on the next Pride card. It's like my birthday. Is this true? Who do you think will win? I'm gunna go with Sakuraba, not because he is my favorite fighter....ever, but because he is a good deal younger (but at 37ish hes stil olf for an MMA fighter) and has been training real hard with Chute Boxe. I like ken, but i would expect him to go down in this fight, my guess is due to some ground and pound by Saku, a submission is also likely.

I think Ken would ground and pound him, or KO him while standing. Ken does tire quickly, so if it goes awhile, Sak will submit him.

Why? Sak has had no problems kicking Gracie ass, yet Ken hasnt been able to deal with the gracies... I would be surprised to see ken to well at all...

And Ken looks good? The last fight i saw was the one on the Ufc show, where Ken looked doped up and confused BEFORE the fight

what scares me is what fighting can do to you over a long period of time. Seeing some of these battered brains makes me fear training in striking arts, or ever doing MMA professionaly. I want to stay sharp always.

I've been a big fan of Sakuraba since his first appearence in UFC. My money is on him for the fight.
