A look back at a classic grappling match between MMA legends Frank Shamrock and Dan Henderson at “The Contenders” international wrestling.
The videos also features a look back into each fighters training during the late 90′s. Shamrock had just built a lifetime worth of MMA experience in Japan and was now trying to make it in the US.
Dan Henderson was in his wrestling prime, just coming of his Olympic wrestling career. Henderson had little to no MMA experience and looked like a wrestler out of his element as he took on the experienced submission artist.
ha i thought it was mma dang..but still frank wooped at ass
It's pretty cool to see Henderson with front teeth and Frank Shamrock without the huge ego.
henderson looks so young in his interview i think he would smash frank now
yeah henderson looks really young. its crazy to see how old those events looked ten years ago. the production has changed so much.
