Ken Shamrock - The Most Dangerous Man in the World. Part 1

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

I really did grow up watching Ken Shamrock was a kid in the 90's and after I started to train in mma my instructor&coach had showed me 70% of Ken's mma fights in my teens by the end of the next year he had shown me all of Ken's vintage fights that I am pretty sure that I missed out on when original aired in USA and after that we started finding his fights over seas mostly in Japan

[@richardmiller6422]

Who F$cking cares

[@piratescove4]

For anyone that hasn't had a chance, you really should read his book. Shows why he is willing to work so hard to compete. Hard life.

[@fluffyfeetbmf]

Ken is one of the best of all time. His fight with Dan was classic Ken. I like remembering him like this an not WWF 🙄 thanks for the great video.

[@arniegonzalez8602]

One of the first ones in the sport a veteran, very cool and humble man, my respects to him, actually got to meet him at apple Annie's restaurant in Tulare where I worked years back ago, took pictures and had a few words down to earth and straight forward individual. God bless and stay righteous brother

[@Dartanian1972]

Anything but humble…dudes a roid head ..has been all his life

[@ngc-fo5te]

Humble??? I think you are mistaking him for someone else.

[@drewwerts7711]

Shamrock looks great on tv. I saw him at a high school wrestling match in San Diego 20 years ago. I’m decent sized. Shamrock had his shoulders in two different zip codes… He is huge. The only time I have ever seen some that big was at the Mr.O in Las Vegas. I have a ton of respect for this guy… Great athlete.

[@Dartanian1972]

Bc he’s on rocket fuel

[@electrolytics]

I've always enjoyed following the two Shamrock brothers. Lot's of heart, scrappy and competitive.

[@JGD185]

I heard in an interview he had to completely change his fighting style after his time in WWF cause pro wrestling fked his knees up so bad he couldn't shoot for takedowns anymore. That's why he became mostly a striker after

This 2 part series is a great tribute to the definitive early MMA legend its great to see people have renewed interest in legends like Ken Shamrock he and Frank don't get the credit they deserve for helping to grow and develop the sport into the billion dollar industry we now know not only was he an incredible martial arts champion that proved he could still clash with the best into his 50s as well as showing his talents as a performer in the WWF and TNA all while being an amazing coach that created the first real MMA gym that pumped out great fighters with the Lions Den and basically carried Zuffas rebuild of the UFC with his rivalry against Tito Ortiz he was also one of the first fighters that would grow and develop their repertoire of in ring skills instead of just relying on their base the man is truly an underappreciated legend that should be held in the regard as one of the greatest to ever step foot into the octagon

[@xStaman]

Frank was the real deal. Lightning submissions, great cardio, big fight IQ etc... Frank also knew when to walk away. Ken , not so much

[@edwells4769]

The Shamrocks get an insane amount of respect.

[@mrglock2313]

Say what you want about ken, he is a pioneer in MMA and I met him several times in person and he was great to me. May God bless you ken 🙏

[@blckber4499]

Incredible athlete with unmatched skills set in the fighting arena. Many youngins only knew him as his character as a wrestler in WWF. He's Rounda Rousey or Logan Paul. Nothing but blood in his eyes

[@alspeers6931]

Ken and his brother Frank were really world class outstanding fighters of their time,total 100% respect, But like so many Great athletes and fighters who much later return to the scene of their great glory they often fall on their own sword Father time, L Holmes,the great Klistkows bros,Anderson Silva, Hoise Gracey, Joe Frazier, the great Joe Lewis, even the amazing undefeated EMPEROR Fedor, or Cain Velasquez, anyway more often than not brave men return to the scene of the crime at their great peril

[@mattf516]

Ken was a pathetic roid cheat

[@Snarksneeze]

Fedor has lost several fights. 1 by submission and 5 by knockout

[@darkerdaemon7794]

Who's to say when someone is at their prime though? Is that call up to you or some other stranger? Don't belittle their accomplishments by pretending their later efforts weren't up to par.

[@eddiekingham]

Don't forget Muhammad Ali. Stayed out there way too long.

[@chriskappauf6331]

Funaki was actually one of the guys who taught Ken shoot style when he came to Japan so they knew each other before that fight

[@deusfilius7]

Ken-what a physique and the skills to match.

[@walterbates1654]

Feeding the KZbin algorithm. Great story. Ken is a storied fighter, an amazing competitor, and a fantastic teacher.

[@sydneysheppard4979]

Ken was a real baddass!!he earned his notoriety!! I'd like to see him in wrestling again...

[@Yelladog78]

The most dangerous man in the world is the one that doesn't have anything left to lose

[@nickwinters866]

Actually I'd say the most dangerous man in the world is a sociopath. No emotion no care for consequences only to do what they want At their own desirable will.

[@antonego8356]

In his day, this man was a beast

[@tannhauser5399]

He was packing some heat with the extreme size balls in his pants too. 4 children and 2 wives (well 7 childrens, but 3 are not his own)... Talk about some Zoo kind of action in the bed. No current Marvel character would survive that kind of action.

[@williamlawlor7445]

Sure thing.

[@jonathanharris8566]

If it wasn't for Ken and Frank there wouldn't be a UFC ..... people loved to watch these guys and can't forget the Gracie's mainly Royce the sport was so rugged.. gritty...no holds barred type of game at the time a lot of these dudes wouldn't of survived fighting 3 times in one night sometimes that's just hardcore for any competitor....and Kens rage inside and outside the ring made him popular not mention the manner he beat guys in truly one of the greatest

[@mmsm6370]

He was the first superstar ultimate fighter imo. Grew to dislike him but it's all a game.

[@ccrider3435]

When you think about how many 60 year olds Ken could beat today AND how many of today's stars could not beat a 60 y/o Ken when they're 60... I think Ken earned the Zen!

[@ghostttriddder]

Ken was one of the first few fighters who are well rounded having a base in catch wrestling + kickboxing = The shoot wrestling style he had gave him advantage in the ground and in standup. Royce best him in the ground tho but it was more of a misshap in ground transition that got him choked out. So the casuals that are saying he is just a bum who tito beat 3x should think twice on what they say. Pancrase era shamrock would tire tito out and submit him in the ground.

[@mikefarley5358]

Shamrock in his prime would have submitted Tito

[@jjmill5209]

Very accurate

[@tplandes749]

You wouldn't think it's a game when he knocks your teeth out...

[@memysurname7521]

Not a mishap, he goes for a leglock Catch Wrestling style and got caught. He was a good fighter tho, Royce was just better that time. BJJ was being showed to the world, others would have lost too, so easily or easier.

[@seekanddestroy7343]

Ken prime would absolutely embarass Frito Ortiz.

[@markdavid4897]

Ken Shamrock is a great fighter, and fine human being.

[@glenslover4522]

Amazing to see the progress of Ken shamrock from his very first fight what some called The Pinnacle of his career MMA UFC 6 you can see the greatness and the future Hall of famer to be an icon in the industry

[@thecentralscrutinizerr]

I saw the Gracie / Shamrock fight in 1995. Hoyce Gracie was, imo, the greatest fighter alive pound for pound in his prime. Ken Shamrock was the tie for 2nd, sharing it with Dan Severn. The 3 of them together is what made MMA. They are today, the MMA godfathers.

[@devriestown]

LOL no he wasn't there was alot of people better than Royce. He wasn't even the family champion.

[@devriestown]

Royce wasn't even good at high level jiu jujitsu he got choked out cold .

[@ShadeTree_RC]

regardless out of the ring antics ill always respect him as an OG of the sport

[@fyte4luv23]

he stayed way past his prime n became The World's Most Dangerous Can

[@jimmysanders4813]

The will to win and the heart to win will always rise above all styles of the martial arts.This is why we must see these fighters fight.Results matter.

@@deadslash736 yeah, technology advanced real quick in that way over the last few years, at first I thought it was a real dude too, but there's just too many signs. Like you said the dialogue sometimes is just nonsensical, but that could have been bad translations only if the person responsible for the script wasn't english speaking (like me for example). But by listening to many of these, sometimes you can hear inconsistencies in the speech pattern that rings a bell that it actually is an A.I. the information is also stuff you can easily look up on the web. I'm not an expert on this or anything, but there's just too many signs pointing at it. Also, the weird thumbnails that don't make sense either... Probably a company using algorithms, feeding info to an A.I. that produces those videos. It's getting pretty damn good but it's still not that good that you can tell nobody actually really worked on these!

[@debbiemiller4281]

Ken is the Godfather of MMA. He was the first true mixed martial artist. All the other guys were based on one style but Ken trained in & could do many styles. If not for Ken MMA would have been jiu jitsu matches & would have all but died off. I have the most respect for Ken & all that he accomplished. He truly was the world's most dangerous man in the 90s.

Although he did struggle with much smaller Gracie.

[@zigzzagz5732]

I never liked it that Royce could use his gi as a choking weapon. This wasn't a Jiu Jitsu match and if Royce was going to be allowed to wear it he shouldn't have been allowed to use it that way. It cheapened the win in my eyes. I mean how do you get to use a piece of cloth to wrap around a guys neck and call it a fair fight. But I guess when your order brother is running the promotion and they want you to win that's how it goes.
