Who would win, Anderson Silva vs Frank Shamrock (In his prime or present)?

Question

I would like serious answers please. I'm just curious what others might think. I already have my opinion.

Answer 1

silva would kill him in a fight

Answer 2

Silva would bust that @ss. Whether it was Sham in his prime, or Sham as he is today. Silva's standup is better, his ground is more than a match for Frank. As a matter of fact, I don't even think Frank would be able to get it to the ground. Frank's a good tactician and is an encyclopedia of MMA knowledge, but if he can't get in your head, can't psyche you out, he can't win.  

Answer 3

in his prime Frank Shamrock could give Silva a real fight, however Silvas stand up is in another league compared to Shamrocks, however shamrock had that brutal ground game, he is a master at throwing, heel hooks, and many other kinds of leg locks, he could catch Silva,

what many people dont know is that one of Silva few loses came from a heel hook thrown by Ryo , in the post fight they said Silva had surgery on one,( or possibly both of his) ankles ,so Shamrock would have that going for him

but honestly i think Silva would knock him out, but their is also the X factor so shamrock would defiantly be in that figh t  

Answer 4

My money is on sham , even now ,

he is a more complete fighter than silva ,

heck he went toe to toe with cung,

he is just a bit older , a little bit more experienced ,

if he puts he ego aside he should be him

should be an entertaining fight

Answer 5

silva no questin about it

Answer 6

Silva..Would when now and then...shamrock fights diffrent than silva and its not a good diffrent either...

Answer 7

Shamrock in his prime would take him out.  Silva is great but not as great as Shamrock.  I think Shamrock even know would give him a h**l of a fight.

Wasn't there some   s   h   i   t    about the UFC going to give Frank Shamrock a call when they found someone good enough to fight him, and they never called.

Even with a broken arm against Cung Le Shamrock was still a sav until he couldn't go no more and that was the first time that ever happened.

Only stopped once by a broken bone, I don't think Silva could stop him.
