Ken Shamrock should have retired after the last Ortiz fight. He is embarrasing himself, but I'm not a Shamrock fan, so maybe Tito will make him retire after their next fight.

I really think Shammy is delusional....his ego is so big, he truley believes he was robbed in the last fight, and he would have come back to give Tito a "whoopin'"
If he ddoesn't retire after Tito hands him yet another loss, Shammy may end up dying in the ring....I'm serious...it's sad, but if he keeps on fighting, and keeps getting pounded badly, he could be the first casualty in the modern MMA.

I'm convinced this will be the last fight for him in the UFC. No one will pay to see him if he gets destroyed this time. Unless of course he fights other similar fighters such as Tank Abbott or Royce Gracie. Fighters who are a bit older and presumabley out of their prime. Keep Randy Couture out of the conversation though because that would be just another fierce beating for Ken. Everyone passes their prime and i'm not making fun of Shamrock in any way, I just think it's time. If he proves me wrong against Ortiz it will be one heck of a comeback story. But I just can't fathom it.

If Shamrock gets badly injured, even dies, I know the ufc would not like to talk about it, but if it happens, the ufc will go back to being the bloodsport ignorant people thought it was 10 years ago. Plus a ufc hall of famer dying would only add fuel to the fire. He should just try to commentate with joe rogan and mike goldberg, but not add any of his ignorant opinions, i.e. tito's fights.

If he loses the only people to want to pay to see him fight will be in lower venues to bring publicity, like King of the Cage.

he's ken shamrock. He'll always have a draw somewhere if they make the fight hype sound interesting.
