I've lost a lot of respect for Shamrock the way he has continued to try and fight Ortiz. He reminds me of an old hockey player that should have retired a few years back.
All he get now is pity. Time to move on. Maybe back to wrestling.
He probably got paid 100k or something to do the fight. He looked to be in worse shape than his last fight with Ortiz. Smiling and dancing going to the ring was very un-Shamrock-like, it seemed like he knew he was going in to lose. No idea why he'd want to go out like that though, so I'm assuming maybe money was a factor. Not sure what those guys get paid, but I wouldn't be surprised if Ken/Tito were pulling in 6 figures a year at least.
