Brock Lesnar was basically eye candy for MMA. He came in there, he was big, he was strong, he won a few matches, he captured the title, and then he was out. Not much of a career. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
WWE is something I’m looking at. Definitely have been throwing little feelers out there to get an opportunity. Because I have achieved everything that I have set out to do in every organization except the WWE. I didn’t get the world title. I got everything else but that. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
Bellator offered me a job. UFC never offered me an opportunity to fight. There’s no question that UFC is the top. It’s a machine. A lot of people, including myself, have helped build the UFC to where it is today. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
I would love to see Bellator come up and offer an opportunity for competition. Then, fighters could negotiate contracts, and they would not be limited to having only one opportunity, one option, where you have to take what’s given to you. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
I grew up on the street, and I found a way to vent my frustrations through fighting. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
I’m a warrior at heart. A lot of other people do it for money, or they want stardom and fame because they want to be famous or they just want to be on TV, and they just happen to have the skills to be a good fighter. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
How you find out who somebody is, whether or not they are a true warrior, a true competitor all the way through… is people that don’t know how to walk away or say, ‘I’m retired.’ Those are the ones that are purebred warriors. They don’t know anything else. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
You can’t tell me to stop being me. As long as there’s something out there for me, or somebody offers me something that’s reasonable, people that I want to fight, not just anybody, it’s gotta make sense… but as long as those fights come around, I will continue to keep being me. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
People go fishing and hunting and playing basketball and hiking and skydiving and all kinds of things that can hurt you seriously, and they don’t have to stop doing that when they get older. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
Because of who I am and what I’ve accomplished, everything is pretty much given to me. People cater to me all the time. It’s almost like I’ve lost that edge – lost the ability to want something and then put in the work necessary to get it. Ken Shamrock Read Quote
