Ken Shamrock announces April foray into bareknuckle boxing

UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock (28-15-2) has announced his next move in combat sports: a bareknuckle boxing match.

An announcement was made today on Shamrock’s official website, stating “The World’s Most Dangerous Man” will face “bareknuckle legend James Quinn” in an April 2015 bout to be held in the U.K.

No other details were released, but the statement contends the 50-year-old UFC pioneer is fight ready.

“Shamrock is in great health and feels invigorated by this opportunity to continue to compete and to continue giving back to his fans,” the statement read. “Shamrock is going back to his roots as a fighter. Knowing his body well, Shamrock knows that his decision to re-enter the ring for the love of this sport is a sound decision.

1000% agree. i use to be a die hard shamrock fan myself. But seeing his carrier unfold after the tito beatings has been very hard to watch and to make things worse i feel more people will start to remember him as some 40 to 50 year old hack always getting his ass handed to him than the awesome pancreas fighter turned to UFC and became a great pioneer for the sport that he was.
