Question

Anderson silva in a street fight against ken shamrock who would win?

Answer 1

Ken Shamrock has never had the tools Silva has prime or not.  Shamrock I believe was severely overrated in his hey-day he possibly has the trophy for most boring fight in the history of mma.  Gracie/Shamrock 2

Answer 2

cage silva would win

ken shamrock of old would wipe his

*** with anderson.

Answer 3

Anderson Silva would wipe the floor with Ken Shamrock... Seriously!

Answer 4

First off, gumbie, above says that Ken Shamrock has no heart, but then he says in the next sentence that Shamrock’s body gave up long before his heart, which would imply that he has run for the last few years on heart alone, which is a true statement.  To say that Shamrock is a declined fighter is a fair statement.  To say that Shamrock has no heart is just ridiculous.  

So, Silva vs Shamrock now would be a slaughter, street fight or not.  Both in their prime would be interesting, but Silva would still mop the cage with Shamrock I think.  I’m pretty sure it would mirror the last whuppin Tito gave Shamrock.  Ken would want to brawl, but “Spider,” like Tito was, would just be way too technically advanced for that.  Silvia now would trounce Shamrock in his prime in any kind of fight.  The only way Ken would have a chance is if it were a handicap tag-team match where Ken was able to tag in his brother Frank when he got winded.  Even then I’d still give Silva a 50/50 chance in that street fight.  

I hate to pee in the face of tradition, because I am somewhat of a traditionalist when it comes to MMA, but Shamrock at his best wasn’t all that great compared to the best of today.  When you look at it, Ken made his legacy by beating Dan Severn a couple times, Bas Ruttin a couple times, a great Masakatsu Funaki a couple times, and a couple great fights against Royce Gracie (one ending in a draw after like 35 minutes) in the mid 90’s.  After that, you sprinkle in wins over some decent guys like Maurice Smith and Kazuyuki Fujita.  Pretty respectable, if not great for the times, but I compare it to (cover your eyes sports purists) Babe Ruth.  Ruth is undoubtedly the father of modern baseball, but he was the best of a crop of guys who had other professional jobs that let them dabble in baseball as a hobby mostly.  He was playing against professional bakers, butchers, store keepers, and farmers.  h**l, what we know about body capability, weight training, conditioning, and nutrition nowadays suggests that the greats of the game back in Ruth’s times would be nothing more than average Joes nowadays, and not even average athletes.  

I think the same could be said for Ken Shamrock.  Ken was a man, a pure brawler with martial arts training and a wide mean streak, who dominated some guys strictly because they had full time jobs or came from other full time disciplines and were dabbling in the very young sport of MMA as a second income or a hobby (Brian Johnson, Alex Cook, Felix Mitchell, all of which Shamrock beat).  Ken Shamrock is Babe Ruth, and Anderson Silva is Albert Pujoles.

Answer 5

ken shamrock could never beat anderson silva

Answer 6

Anderson Silva could show up to a Shamrock  family Cookout and whipe out the whole fcking family.

Answer 7

Anderson Silva, he is arguably the p4p best in the world, and much more of a complete fighter than Ken is or ever was.

Answer 8

If it was Ken Shamrock of 15years ago, he would destroy silva but if its ken shamrock now, anderson silva in under a minute.

Answer 9

Anderson silva I'd say :)***

Answer 10

Ken, doesn't have the heart to win, and hasn't for sometime.  He retired because his body quit long before his heart was ready.  Now, 15 years ago when he was in his prime..Nope, I don't think his arsenal would match Sylva's, and Sylva's ability would crush that of Ken's street fight or otherwise.

True24m..I was referring to Kens heart presently, not in his prime.  His later fights he quit before the fight was over.  This wasn't the Ken of old, because in his prime he'd be a bloody mess and "quit" wasn't an option.  Athletes bodies usually call it quits before the mind does, that is what I meant.

I gave you a "thumbs up" even though you miss understood what I was saying, because I agreed in other parts.
