Ken Shamrock Calls Royce Gracie a 'Chicken'

Ken Shamrock to Royce Gracie: You Chicken!
Ken Shamrock responds to Gracie’s ’s claim 'he’s done'
By Chris Colderley
Ken Shamrock earned his reputation as "the world’s most dangerous man" fighting in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). But, as a former professional wrestling Champion, Shamrock may also be the most marketable fighter in the UFC. His grudge match with Tito Ortiz on 22 November 2002 drew the largest audience for an event since the UFC returned to cable TV. Shamrock has been sidelined since his fight with Tito Ortiz because of a lingering ACL injury, but he is confident in his return.
Last month when Boxing Insider spoke to Royce Gracie, he said Ken Shamrock "is done." Chris Colderley spoke to Ken Shamrock last week to get his response to Gracie’s claim that he’s done as fighter. Here is an excerpt from that discussion
BoxingInsider.com: I spoke to Royce Gracie mid-way through August. I asked him to give me thoughts on some fighters, and I mentioned your name. He said, "Oh, he’s done. Sorry, after that beating by Don Frye and Tito Ortiz, I don’t think he’s coming back. He’s done."
Ken Shamrock: Who said this?
BoxingInsider.com: Royce Gracie.
Ken Shamrock: Well, end quote! Tell Royce Gracie he can beat on me if he’d like. I’d lose weight to fight him.
If he thinks he’s got the right to say something when he hasn’t stepped in the ring in I don’t know how many years - and when he did, he lost . . . By the way, I’m not done!
I think people that know me, know that I’ve had some problems and that I’m getting those worked out and fixed. When I do come back we’ll see.
BoxingInsider.com: What do think it would take to get a fight between you and Gracie?
Ken Shamrock: An act of God. Royce Gracie’s a chicken! He won’t fight me.
BoxingInsider.com: Would you concede to any special rules for that Ken?
Ken Shamrock: We could have no rules - Whatever he wants, as long as he doesn’t make me drop down to 180 pounds - 190 pounds. I’ll meet him halfway. If he goes up weight, I’ll go down weight.
