What did Frank Shamrock do that Ken Shamrock didn't?

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Pioneers... Frank made Tito quit and really start training cardio. But he will never be in the HOF.

Ken Is a legend, but i dont think he has a defining win.

When frank beat tito, tbh it was one of the craziest things, the way frank looked, the way he moved, the reflexes, conditioning and figthing sprit and not to mention technique, Frank was the best there ever was; i followed ken' carrer and expected alot, worlds most dancerous man yadayada. Ken looked cool and was strong as hell but never really had a meaningfull win. I guess he smashed ryoce in the rematch but never got the win so it was always missn somthing with ken.

Love Frank one of my all time favorites!

 

[djacobox372]

He's better, different genetics... they aren't real brothers.

 

[OrigFan255]

Born from different parents for starters.

Although they look like actual blood bros....CRAZY! I KNOW!

 

[LATEXXX COMMANDO]

Frank was more agile, insane cardio, better stand up.

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

damn! he was an animal!

Frank was more athletic and had better skills.

Bas,Funaki,Beast,Kimo... pretty decent wins imo...

Actually Frank openly admitted to never training that hard he would even skip practice but would fight his heart out in fights

He's got that Mexican cardio and heart that his irish brother doesn't have.

Tito was so much better by UFC 40. He destroys Frank at that point..

Ken is the most hyped fighter in the UFC. He was terrible and they even made up a superfight title for him... He knew how to speak to the cameras, something the UFC was looking for at the beginning. Tito destroyed him in the second fight and he cried so much they gave him a third, took another beating!

[C0NCH3TO]

Frank was better imo. Such a beast.

 

[Idonotbelieveit]

Ken was old
Ken in prime beats him within 5 minutes

 

[Idonotbelieveit]

Frank was on a whole another level than ken ken was just buff and well rounded at the time a prime frank today woulda fucked this division up except jj he cant be beaten

Disagree maybe in striking that's it
Cardio is close
Ken wins in wrestling
Subs

Frank was a real martial artist. Ken did some martial arts but was more interested in selling himself as a brand.

Frank - real

Ken - fake

Fake but ken taught frank pretty much everything
