    Shamrock was chasing him around tagging him at will, Cung's face opening up the entire last minute of round 3...Cung did get some distance in the last fifteen seconds and landed an insanely BRUTAL kick to the head. Then a quick flurry and another similarly BRUTAL kick before the bell. Shamrock bleeding as well.

    FIGHT OVER! Shamrock cannot answer bell for 4th!

    Le was in serious danger of getting stopped there...nice job not only surviving the round but turning it around at the end...those last two kicks are what won him the fight IMO, they ****ing thunderclapped off Frank's skull. Had those not landed he might have been finished off in the next round.

    Announcers are saying it was actually an arm injury :blood

    I think it has to be the kicks to the head...

    Physician stoppage at Shamrock's request, my bad.

    That was an insane fight. Nothing like I expected. I'd say Silva would throw Cung into the Muy Thai clinch and knee him through the roof if they ever fought...but who knows. This sport is crazy. Entertaining...but crazy.

    No, I wasn't calling you out on that. I was trying to wrap my head around what was happening myself. Didn't expect him to not come out. So my only response was "um...".

    This fight solidifies it. Leg kicks are so the thing of the past. Arm kicks are the way to go. :blood

    Silva would kill both too Big too strong too sharp...But this was a beautiful tactical fight..the amount of kicks blocked in this fight was insane. Mad respect for Frank..RESPECT..Long live MMA!!!

    Didn't really get to see how well-rounded (or not) he is, but Cung Le has cemented himself in my mind as someone to watch (high praise as I'm a serious slackass when it comes to following this sport :lol:). That was some very sweet standup.

    Frank saying Cung broke his right arm with a single kick. He's in a sling and wincing visibly. Damn...

    Very good fight with excellent stand up hats off to both men, Shamrock took 2 huge kicks to the head but couldnt carry on. Le got caught by some big shots as well, best fight of year so far
