Part 2: Ken Shamrock: The UFC Used to Be a Street Fight

--------

Ken Shamrock elaborates on how he earned the formidable title "The World's Most Dangerous Man." The moniker originated from a television special that featured various dangerous personalities. During the peak of his UFC career, when the sport had virtually no rules or time limits, Shamrock was selected as the most dangerous person featured. This was an era when fighters could engage in eye gouging and groin attacks, actions now prohibited in the heavily regulated modern UFC environment. Shamrock believes that fighters from his time, including himself and Royce Gracie, possessed advanced grappling skills and conditioning that could make them successful even in today's organized UFC. His rigorous training philosophy was encapsulated in the Lion’s Den, a team known for its brutal tryouts and relentless conditioning, designed to ensure fighters felt prepared for anything in the octagon.
