It was fun to watch him taunt Cung but I think all that did was make Cung that much more focused. When Frank was aggresively moving forward with flying fists, Cung was off his game and Frank could have taken him, hence Cung's big fat lip. But when clowning around and allowing Cung to set and time his kicks, Frank just found himself in defense mode. At the end of the 3rd round, Frank really needed a break and .......he got one. Heal your arm Frank, come back and kick that little kid from Vietnam with Guns ablazin, azz.

Sweet. Strikeforce belt is coming to Japan... OH WAIT, WAIT Where is Jorge Santiago? who is the winner of the last tournament? Why his name is not coming first for the title shot? He showed great performances in his last 3 fights against Jeremy Horn, Salmon and Plangley =( Lee vs. Misaki… Sweet. Strikeforce belt is coming to Japan…

It was obvious within the first few minutes that Cung was the superior striker. Frank gave it an effort standing, but should have switched gears, closed the distance, and gone for the takedown. No one would have cared that he promised a stand-up war if he had decided to take it to where he is at his best (on the ground) to win the fight. If he wants to keep the Frank Shamrock mystique while promoting his "brand", then he needs to win, not just put on exciting fights which are tactically stupid. That is the sign of a true competitor who likes to challenge and test himself, but not the sign of an intelligent fighter. Maybe I'm from the old school with this statement, but I would rather see a great fighter look bad and win than look great and lose. Winning is still the most important aspect of any sport to me.
