Ken Shamrock is holding tryouts.....

....for his new Lions Den Gym in Connecticut. Personally, I think they should call it the Old Lions Den, considering the only top quality talent to come out of there peaked in the late 1990's, but the guy's got to make a buck. I guess it beats ducking a fight versus Kimbo....

Prehistoric Shamrock to "expose" Kimbo?

"And while the 15-year veteran presumably will hold an obvious edge on the ground, Shamrock said his game plan would include a few wrinkles."

Kimbo to take on Ken Shamrock Oct. 4th

Sherdog.com confirmed that the bout will be announced today....this fight will be a joke. Ken Shamrock has been over the hill for a least five years now and not even the UFC could resurrect his career. How is losing to Kimbo going to change anything? Is Ken Shamrock a name that will still draw people to watch? Perhaps Bret Rogers was to experienced for Kimbo at this point, but Elite XC needs to step up their game.
