A prime Shamrock today would be a Top 10 HW in my opinion.

Also apparantly most people don't know that when Bas started out he knew NOTHING about the ground game. Once he started to learn more he became a beast. Bas did say he asked them to give him anotherm atch Ken said no.

Ken was a good fighter back in the day. However, Bas would literally have killed Ken if they fought today.

Ken fought too long and the sport passed him by. That's what most people probably think about when they think about him fighting.

I don't know why it has to be an either/or situation. They are both bad ass. Even if Ken is a meathead with the IQ of a door knob.

nothing against bas, but he is without a doubt THE most overrated fighter on sherdog


he's one of those guys that fool stupid fans into thinking he's a good fighter by the sheer force of his personality

If Ken hadn't come back to MMA in 2000, he'd be a legend now. He's one of the few people that ever actually tarnished their legacy by competing too long.
