No point beating around the bush: I'm not a huge MMA fan. The little I know of the sport I've picked up through talking to my brother and friends. I've learned enough to get by on a casual conversation. I know most of the main guys, and how tough the sport is.
But one thing that I've struggled with is sportsmanship in the ring, or a lack of it.

A Letter to Ken Shamrock
Dear Ken,
You are due to face Kimbo Slice in the main event of the EliteXC Circus in October. At this stage of your career, you have faced the best of the best and have nothing left to prove to anyone, other than the beast inside that all top competitors have.
This beast is indomitable, and it has given you victories when lesser men have faded. It has also made you one of the most recognizable faces in MMA ever. You were one of the original few that brought MMA, and indeed UFC, to a greater audience, and you deserve credit where credit is due.
