Frank Shamrock Slams UFC Hall Of Fame

Frank Shamrock Slams UFC Hall Of Fame - FightLine.com

"First off, I don't think the Hall of Fame has any credibility unless I'm in it," Shamrock asserted. "I was the first champion ever and set two world records. I've been pioneering for this sport since before there was weight classes and gloves. so, it kinda looks to me like the whole Hall of Fame is kind of a flim-flam and it's up to Dana's own jock as to who goes in. And unfortunately, that doesn't define a real sport. A real sport is completely different."

I agree with him, but I´m not too sure people take the HOF too seriously.
Maybe no harm done in being overlooked?

First Champion and two World Records? What are the world records?

When you give yourself the nickname of "The Legend", karma can do things like this.

Have to agree though Miletech and Frank should be in the HOF, based on merit.

He holds the Guinness World Records for Fastest UFC Title Fight Victory by Submission in 16 seconds over Kevin Jackson at UFC Japan in Yokohama Japan.

I don't know about Frank Shamrock being in the hall of fame. What I don't understand is why the tapout guy mask is there. To me that makes the whole thing a huge a joke.
