ken shamrock

Rumor is that Ken Shamrock will be fighting at Cage Rage 25 at Wembley Arena in London, UK on March 8, 2008. This would mark the return of Shamrock after being out of commission since his loss to Tito in October of 2006.

Shamrock has only won two of his last nine fights and many thought he was done fighting. In his recent interview on HDNET Fights he lets everyone know that he is not done and he has still been training and would even like to arrange a fight with his brother Frank.

Most of the fight card has been assembled for the event. Shamrock’s opponent has yet to be added. I will let you know as soon as this rumor is official and the rest of the card is added.

Cage Rage 25 Fight Card (Non Official)

  • Paul Daley vs Drew Ficket
  • Jean Silva vs Charles Bennett
  • Gary Turner vs Mustapha Al Turk
  • Ivan Serati vs Roman Webber
  • Rob Broughton vs Neil Grove
  • Danny Batten vs Leigh Remedios
  • Ken Shamrock vs TBA
  • John Hathaway vs TBA
