CUNG LE!!!

Holy shit! The fight of the CENTURY happened and I didn't even know! The undefeated Cung Le went up against the legend Frank Shamrock! I got a random text message from Jennii, but had no idea what it was about!

Both men are from San Jose, and the fight is to crown the best fighter. Cung Le is an awesome stand up fighter. He especially loves the kicks. Shamrock is a wrestler of legendary status, but has proven his ability to fight on his feet as well.

I got to watch the entire fight at this website.

R3: Le starts to become more precise with his strikes, landing good kicks, a spinning back fist and a while catching Shamrock's kick he takes out his opponent's other leg with a big kick getting the takedown. Back on their feet, Shamrock starts to close the distance and he lands a hard right hand that stuns Le. Le recovers and as the round comes to a close he unloads a nice head kick that almost puts Shamrock out but the session ends. Shamrock is unable to answer the bell for round 4 and the fight is over.
