Man was i ever excited to see this fight, i was a huge Frank Shamrock fan, i always tought he is early retirement back in 1999 was way to soon and he had so much fight in him.

Renzo has a lot of respect for each of is opponents but Shamrock on the other hand seemed to be taking trash a lot against the Gracies.

I can live with that after all whats a little trash talking to juice up a fight.

The thing i am totally against is the knee strikes behind Renzo head.

They where illegal and could have caused some serious damange to Renzo.

I felt really bad to see this fight end like this, and have a hard time beleiving that Shamrock didnt know theses strikes where landing on the back of the head of Renzo.

This deserve a serious rematch cause Renzo was dominating Shamrock on the ground and could have won the fight.

All in all i lost a lot of respect toward Frank Shamrock.

On the other hand i was very impressed by Renzo i tought he wouldnt get pass the first round and was amazed on how well he kept Shamrock on the ground.
