Ken was already old and past his prime, so that fight with Tito doesn't mean much. A prime Ken was a whole different animal, he was strong as hell and a very dominant fighter then. The problem with Ken is he never knew when to quit, so when he kept fighting way past his prime, he gave these younger fighters like Tito an opportunity to brag that they beat the great Shamrock.
Yeah Tito should be a little more humble about it and give him his props. Not say I was a different animal than him, shouldve said Ken is one of the mma legends, I wish we could've fought both in our primes or something like that.
Tito is a monster. Still a good fighter, still wins..idk if he's retired now or not but you can say he's cringy and all that but you can't deny he's not good, beat alot of good fighters.
Ken was 38 at the that fight. But clearly he was not the same fighter after his 4 year hiatus from WWE. Ken in the 90's was lot stronger and more athletic than when he fought Tito.
@@rashamohammed2591 I remember Ken had a heart attack fighting Fujita in his return fight lol. He was so juiced and big, never the same fighter again..
@e G I felt the same way.I personally think he doesn't get enough credit for that aspect, which may have been affected by Ken Shamrock's popularity.Not to mention, he was built like an action figure toy.
Ken dazed Tito in the 1st round but didn't capitalize on it. Then Tito is on top of him and Ken somehow slipped out. Tito beat the dog shit out of him but how many fighters have dazed Tito in the 1st, slipped out from under him and been beaten that bad and lasted 3 rounds. I gave Ken mad props for that fight.
Its because every event was special. Fighters had personality and you actually cared about them. It's hard to give a shit about 90% of the fighters these days.
I disagree with the both of you the ufc back then was amazing but now it’s much more of a sport, in order to be champion you have to be well rounded and technical back then it was a lot more like striker vs grappler don’t get me wrong that still exists these days but not with most of the guys that are ranked. The ufc/mma is in its prime and it’ll keep growing and getting more and more exposure because fighters, training camps, coaches and even fans are getting a lot more wiser and knowledgeable about every aspect of the mma fight game by every aspect I mean not just the stand up striking and the ground game but also the Clinch game, footwork, level changes, counter striking, defense, head movements, shoulder rolls, etc. Don’t get me wrong the old era was really fukin brutal and exciting but I won’t lie most of the fans during that time just wanted to see two guys standing in front of each other wildly swinging at one another without even caring and noticing recognizing technique. Basically what I’m saying is the sport is evolving into a respectable legit sport, I respect y’alls opinion though but I disagree.
@@juliomendoza5893 I think ppl miss the gladiator feel . Two guys fighting with styles that never came into contact with before trying to take each other head off
Yea, keep making fun of Tito. The guy is an absolute legend. He's in his 40s and is in a fantastic shape. He's always been great to his fans and has done A LOT for the sport. I swear, these new MMA fans are just a disgrace.
he's a horrible public speaker watch him give speeches he's horrible oh and im a professor literally it's part of my job to give talks ive NEVER seen a college student that's worse in giving presentations than Tito @@Idiotsincarshere
Ken was no where near his prime when Tito fought him and he was long past being the most dangerous man at that time. There really isn’t much to brag about getting that win.
Bro, he brags about beating Chuck in the last fight. People forget, and apparently this dumb fuck too, that Chuck is like 8 years older than Tito. And that’s 8 cocaine fueled years which makes a big difference when one is 43 and the other is 51
😁Yeah; it's nice to see. It's hilarious that he's so bad at trash-talking (although excellent fighter in his prime), but that does give 1 more thing to be remembered for😁
Man no matter how many blows Tito took to the head he gots the memory of an apple macbook 💻 wtf this dude can quote everything that happened in his past word for word
Ken at the time had a blown out ACL & shoulder injury as to why he couldnt shoot, sprawl, kick or submit, he cut down to 201 from 215-220 & his body crashed he said it was the worst feeling he had he felt weak, Tito was 205 at the weigh ins & the fight night he was 225. Tito was top of the food chain then, he beat everyone (except Frank) from the lions den, he beat mikey brunette, jerry bolander, guy mezger (rematch) & Ken was way out of his prime & didnt really even train, the UFC offered to pay for Kens knee after the fight it was so bad. BUt Tito was hungry he wanted to take Kens name & add it to his victories , he worked with Rico Rodriquez, collin oyama, scott adams & marc lamon so he had a full force pushing him where Ken was stuck in the old NHB days of lions den training. Those days were tough, hard & brutal but times changed & MMA was transitioning into who was better prepared conditioned wise & well versed in all styles
Mr bro wrestled against him in HS a few times he was a good high school wrestler. I lost to his 190 teammate in 92 for a cif championship Eric Williams from Huntington Beach.
Tito gets his share of negativity, but he has given everything to this sport. He's always fought everyone put in front of him. Listening to his interviews throughout the years, I've definitely come to enjoy them. He's matured and really seems to be enjoying himself now.
I agree that he has matured and is a gifted fighter. But he ducked Liddell for over a year and a half after Chuck was back in number one contender position.
Love this interview with a champion in my opinion VLAD should do interviews with female boxers who never see any fame like the males do, and NEVER see similar paychecks.
Ken vs Tito got alot of people into MMA including myself.
Respect to them both.
That First fight between them got me hooked into MMA! The way Tito destroyed him and Ken not giving up.
Tank Abbott got me into the ufc/Mma,and Gary goodridge after killed that guy in the crucifix elbows lol,
Your spot on. It did introduce the masses into the MMA world.

Amazing. I actually understood most of what Tito said. Wonders will never cease.

I rolled with Tito and rampage years ago at no limits in Irvine. Animals back then
Wow that’s awesome dude. I love molly haha
