Email from Cung about Frank Shamrock fight

I emailed Cung Le's site yesterday and just recieved this email from them regarding Frank Shamrock.



Quote:
Cung is hoping Frank will accept the fight on March 29th to fight at the HP Pavilion so keep your fingers crossed! Cung will train like he always does but add a few more take down defense drills!
How do you think he'll cope?

if this indeed is legit, i am super hyped.

it will surely be a full out battle between these two.

i dont think frank will have too much of a problem going toe to toe with cung, but cung's stand up game is impeccable.

if frank wants to win, he cant take that risk. hes gotta keep this fight on the ground as much as possible.

frank for the win via split decision.

I would say Frank by rd 1 sub. I don't think Cung Le has been up against anyone with the takedowns and ground game as Frank. Then again, Shamrock may not be ready for Cung Le's speed.

All Frank, all day. I love Cung, but let's be real here. Cung looked awful in his last fight, against a TUF washout. Cung can beat some guys, but Frank Shamrock is not one of them. Frank by SUB anytime he wants to!!

frank was never known for his takedowns , he was known to be a good fighter off his back or better cardio.i hope frank does good he has impressed me since his return , i dont want to overhype him and say he will be the next big thing again but its a possibility.his striking looks decent and well hope we get to see the rest of his game as he fights more.his fight with renzo if you take out the illegal knee , i was scoring the bout infavor of frank for all the rounds . renzo took him down and that was pretty much it , renzo may have hit frank maybe less than 5 times through out the whole fight . but i can also see how people felt renzo won based on controlling the fight.but w/e just my 2cents.coung definately looked gas'd in his last fight and i think frank would probably school him on the feet for some reason.

franks stand up looks good and has the advantage on the ground not to mention experience.

Angry Canadian, are you stupid or are you just acting like it?

Cung sucks. His last fight was against a TUF castoff with no chin and it took Cung a kick to the liver to put him down. His "world class" kick-boxing was sloooooow and sloppy.

Frank is going to maul him.
