Who is the Ultimate Shamrock: Ken vs Frank?

On Saturday Ken Shamrock was interviewed at the WEC show and said there were plans for a Battle of the Shamrocks...Ken vs Frank. Today it was reported EliteXC was negotiating for the fight.





Here's a poll with all the relevant information (including VIDEO of the interview with Ken) at TheScoreBoards.com:

So who do you think would win?

Who is the Ultimate Shamrock: Ken vs Frank?
Right now the biggest problem is that Ken is 44 and past his prime, and Frank is 35. When Ken was in his prime (93-96), I'm sure Ken would have probably won. He would have been bigger, stronger, and was a force. People forget that Ken beat Bas Rutten 2X (28-4), Masakatsu Funaki (38-11), Dan Severn (80-15), and plenty of other big names of the day.





Frank is no slouch himself. He had a heck of a streak after losing three in 1997. He beat Tito Ortiz, Enson Inoue, Jeremy Horn, Cesar Gracie, and plenty other big names. He just beat Phil Baroni, while Ken has lost four straight. I'll take Frank right now, and Ken if the fight happened in 1993-96.
Reply:I love Ken for all he's done for the sport and the amazing athlete he is, but Frank is just gonna stomp his adopted brother.


Frank's record and QUICK end to fights is beyond comparison. Ken's record is awesome and he helped carve this new era in fighting that thankfully exists today, but I don't believe he can take Frank past round 2.
Reply:These guys are just trying to make a few bucks..and who could blame them..personally I think Frank has better over all skills than Ken. Remember Ken had his butt kicked 3 x by Tito Ortiz. And Frank beat Ortiz. Ken cant take a punch too well. I think Frank is the tougher of the two and his cardio is of legend.
Reply:I think Ken will win by intimidation alone, sort of the 'big brother is gonna kick your butt' deal.
Reply:Ken. Frank seems to be ducking just about everyone so his record stays good. At least, Ken never backed down. I respect people more if they aren't afraid of losing...
Reply:I love Ken, but Frank has alot of gas. Ken would by KO in Round 1, any later than that and the ball's in Frank's court.
Reply:Frank is younger but way more skilled than Ken..!! Sorry Ken..!!
