i'll always be a ninja fan, ever since his fight with henderson.

I might just have to watch this PPV! and i like Ninja as well!

I like Ninja but he is DEFINATELY fighting in Shoguns shadow! I saw a big white "russian" bang him out on a Pride highlight show, it was no cheap stoppage either, this guy was digging Ninja to the body with heavy shots and then caught him flush to end the fight.

I think Baroni is gonna be tough to beat in that fight. One of my good friends was in a boys camp with Frank Shamrock, his real name is Frank Juarez and was in this camp for violent offenders 18 and under, he said Frank would scrap with anyone at the drop of a hat...HENCE THE REASON FOR BEING IN THE CAMP!! It looks to me like money and "maturity" have stolen a lot of Franks "fire"-- The New York Bad Ass wins by KO

Ken Shamrocks Dad had a group home in my area and that is how Frank and Ken both became Shamrocks...adopted and turned their focus into aggresion INSIDE the ring or cage and not on the streets-

i agree with him being in shogun's shadow but, what can you do? i've said for a few years now that ninja is the best fighter with a "so-so" record, if that makes any sense. as far as shamrock and baroni, i'm goin with frank by submission rd. 1. i think he will truly pour his heart and soul into this fight. this is one of the biggest grudge matches in a while. i love it!

I hate to use this expression but "it depends on what fighters show up"...but I do like your logic on this one Sampson- I just play hunches, Shamrock could win this...My prediction stays as called..NYBA by KO

Is this fight EVER GOING DOWN or what??
