Cung Le Just Making Movies For Now
November 24th, 2008
If you’ve been following Cung Le since his big win over Frank Shamrock, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he’s spending all his time making movies instead fighting. If that leaves you disappointed, you’re not alone, and I wish I could tell you he’s done with all that, it was a great experience, but all he really wants to do is fight. If I did though, I’d just be lying.

August 6th, 2008
Apparently, Dana’s change of heart about Fedor didn’t last long, although I guess “overrated” is a step up from “a farce.”
Cung Le Confirms Talks With The UFC & Potential Fight Against Anderson Silva
August 5th, 2008
The major stumbling block: Cung Le still have three fights left on his Strikeforce contract.
Like the Fedor situation, it’s very doubtful that the UFC would agree to a one off fight against one of its champions without the ability to wrap Le up in a long term deal. It’s an intriguing fight though, and hopefully one we’ll see in the future. Silva would easily be the favorite, but Cung thinks he knows the secret to taking out the Brazilian. Watch the video to find out what it is. Trust me, you haven’t heard this one before. It’s pretty funny.
Frank Shamrock: Three Year Fight Plan, Tito Ortiz On The List
July 9th, 2008
The Frank Shamrock Three Year Fight Plan
- October 2008 - Possibly Robbie Lawler/Scott Smith winner
- Early 2009 - Ken Shamrock
- Late 2009 - Tito Ortiz
- Early 2010 - Cung Le
That is a man with a plan. Say what you want about Frank Shamrock, but he understands the business end of MMA at least as well, if not better than any other fighter.

- The showdown between Frank Shamrock and Cung Le has been labeled a candidate for Fight of the Year by many. The problem is not many people actually tuned in to see it. As reported by Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the event co-promoted by EliteXC & Strikeforce only pulled a 1.2 rating (287,000 viewers). Adam Swift of MMAPayout.com points it out as a disappointment compared to previous Showtime MMA events.
