"To exit "The Octagon" as the Ultimate Fighting champion, one must enter as a master of martial arts, boxing, and wrestling. Now, famed fighter Ken Shamrock shows readers the most important techniques for each discipline. From uppercut punches and roundhouse kicks to double-legged take-downs and the Guillotine choke, each move is explained in detail and illustrated with step-by-step photographs. This book is the ultimate source for tips, techniques and insights into the explosively popular world of Mixed Martial Arts fighting. It will educate and improve the skills of fighters at all levels and show them how to succeed in the hyper-competitive world of Ultimate Fighting. Nothing can match the lessons learned from his many fights, so Ken relates the personal experiences he has had while competing at the highest level of this sport of modern-day gladiators."

Does this make anyone else sad?

Clearly, you didn't see how lethal the Shamrock roundhouse was against Rich Franklin.

If I could find a video clip of the Ultimate Warrior doing his incredibly damaging "Log Roll" against Hulk Hogan I'd post it...

There was a point when Ken was looked at as bing a top fighter. Also there are guys who are getting into the UFC throught the old fights and will not have seen what has become of the worlds most dangerous man. To answer your question it makes me laugh. If you check out Amazon people seem to be into his new book.

you all are just haters, ok no ken needs to fall off the face of the earth for a few years. Or come up with his own reality show, Shamrock knows best???

Shamrock was good back in the day. A combination of not being well rounded and a terrible gas tank is what got him. Watch his fight with Matt Hume in Pancrase, he does a sick suplex that would make Josh Barnett cream his pants.
