by **iamgomi2** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 5:16 pm

EliteXC Executive Gary Shaw admitted in a conference call this week that he has held discussions about hosting a fight between brothers Ken and Frank Shamrock. This adds fuel to a fire that the two adopted brothers have stoked for years.

â€œI talked to my team about it,â€ Shaw said. â€œI would love to do brother versus brother. It would be a great promotion.â€

A guy thats past his prime... and a guy that doesn't know the rules.... no i doubt that would make more money then the rivalry of the shamrock's vs gracie's...

From what little I found about this it seems like it's a bit more then just a rumor but weither it will for sure happen idk yet.

I'd definatly love to see it done & Ken Shamrock seem to say he'd be happy to do it but thinks his bro wont want to since he believes they both know Ken has strong chance of winning. So thats some good prefight talk there to get the blood boiling.

So do they really hate eachother in real life like some family fued of words they had & had a falling out or something or is it just a rivalry thing as fighters ???

I'd love to see Fedor Emelianenko vs. Aleksander Emelianenko that would be a way better bro vs. bro fight IMO.

Who cares about Shamrock vs. Gracie anymore it's old news both have fought 1 of the other & won. The Gracie's just can't ever get over some1 beating them & not being the best or better then some1 else since they don't except defeat well at all. So they always want a rematch or another brother wants to step up & fight some1 for there family honor.

Just like all of them wanting to fight Kazushi Sakuraba after he beat Royce yet he then cleaned house with the rest of the entire Gracie family. I bet they hated that so much lawl. Kazushi Sakuraba only mistake was he shoulda told Royce & the Gracie family before their last fight "fuck off I done beat you & your entire family" & left that sour taste of defeat in the Gracie family's mouths for all time to come w/o avenging all the times they lost vs. Kazushi Sakuraba.

No matter what people might think about these two guys, the fact is that everyone loves to see family fight. I am pretty sure it is going to get good ratings.
