Shamrock finally retires, in OCT. How will you guys remember him?

I know a lot of you guys don't like Shammy, but he has been a true pioneer for the UFC. Givin, he was not at the same level of competition after his return from WWF, the man still had a remarkable and accomplished career.


How will you guys remember him?

Ken Shamrock in his prime (1996 and before) was my favourite fighter. He fought and beat many of the best fighters in the world in the UFC and especially Pancrase. I remember him for those accomplishments, but I hate seeing him drag his name through the mud by not realizing when to quit and holding on for way too long. Its a shame that many of the TUF noobs think that Shamrock is a can, because he was one of the best fighters in the world 10 years ago

One of the biggest scams in MMA History. No other fighter, at least stateside, can say their drawing ability was as inversely proportional to their fighting ability as Ken can. Seriously, shitty fighter who was a HUGE draw.
