...it was difficult to try to work with iron crotch students smacking themselves in the adjacent room. :rolleyes: But now, it's very much about Jack, son of the Iron Crotch. Even Jackie is riding him. ;)
But back OT, I'm disheartened that there have been no comments on Cung's fighters going into the cage this week. Cung is the most prominent Sanshou fighter in MMA, but there are others. Cung's fighter Van Do just won the Princesses of Pain 52kg international MMA.
The Cung Le vs. Ken Shamrock fight can be seen in full here:

The ring doctor stopped the fight after the third round after Shamrock suffered a broken right arm from a roundhouse. It's hard to see which one it was, but I think it was the last roundhouse Le threw in the third round.
Here's the Hot List website.
