Meeting Ken Shamrock And Houston Alexander

By Jeremy Schoemaker 61 comments

Went to Max Muscle today in Lincoln Nebraska where they had 2 UFC fighters - UFC hall of famer - Ken Shamrock and Omaha’s own Houston Alexander (who made Keith Jardine his bitch at UFC 71). I pinged my boy over at ufcjunkie.com to see if he could do some introductions before we showed up and he came through as always cause Houston was like hey man whats up when he recognized my logo.

We talked with both these UFC stars and when I get back from San Jose we are going to go up and hang out with Houston Alexander. He invited us to come up and train with him for a day.

Ken Shamrock was kind of a dick but Houston Alexander was fricking such a super nice guy. I look forward to getting to know him better.

So Jeremy, all this training, ufc stuff etc makes me wonder, you wanna become some badass internet marketer or what’s with all this ?

“Ken Shamrock was kind of a dick”

heh, easy to say when you’re sitting at home on your laptop. I bet you didn’t say that to his face =)

your right cause im sure he would have layed me out right there!

Sami said on August 18th, 2007 at 6:40 pm

but i saw one of your pics you drinking 2 cans of soda, is that healthy?

[Reply]
ShoeMoney said on August 18th, 2007 at 6:41 pm

Acutally Ken Shamrock came off just like he came off on the TUF TV show. Just that he demands respect and that you kiss his ass. I have met many ufc guys and this guy was by far the biggest jerkoff.

ShoeMoney said on August 18th, 2007 at 6:44 pm

hmmm sometimes i wonder if the questions here are a bot or if people are actually this stupid.

Can’t say that I’m surprised that Shamrock is a dick.

They look alot smaller in the ring on tv, those guys are huge.

[Reply]
TeeCeo said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:16 pm

Must be nice. I keep getting the feeling that one day they will talk YOU (SHOEMONEY) into getting into the ring with someone you hate in a cool little match, is this to be anytime soon? Heck, its not like you don’t have so many haters out there to chose from. lol.

[Reply]
Sami said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:20 pm

To shoemoney link (i am no spammer)

actually was 3, and looks diet pepsi. by the way nice office.

[Reply]
Trevor McNotDonald said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:21 pm

Ahh okay, shame about the attitude problem then. Suppose its probably quite hard acting like he does when wrestling then going back to being a normal person

[Reply]
ShoeMoney said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:26 pm

do you know he is not a wrestler? ………….

[Reply]
ShoeMoney said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:27 pm

still waiting to see the pic where I am.. as you say.. “but i saw one of your pics you drinking 2 cans of soda, is that healthy?”

[Reply]
Trevor McNotDonald said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:28 pm

Great idea - I would pay good money to see this!

[Reply]
ShoeMoney said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:29 pm

Heh yes many haters who hide behind their keyboards. I have yet to ever have words 1 time with someone at a conference. Its amazing when people meet you in real life how different they are then online.

Loren said on August 18th, 2007 at 7:47 pm

Shamrock is one of the coolest guys ever.

[Reply]
Nocturnal said on August 18th, 2007 at 8:01 pm

Did any of the fighters or even the guy from UFCJunkie ever tell you that you look a lot like Marc Laimon from Cobra Kai Jiu-Jitsu over in Vegas? He has a smaller frame but you guys could possibly pass for brothers.

Ken Shamrock is a bad @$$ fighter.

[Reply]
Mason said on August 18th, 2007 at 8:21 pm

wow you meet so many famous people… didn’t you say you were going to do something business related with another ufc guy?

[Reply]
Ruck said on August 18th, 2007 at 9:37 pm

WOW!,

Nice photos of all the UFC fighters man. Looks like we are both big into it. To bad that wasn’t Frank instead of Ken. LOL…I wish I got to go to more than the 2 events I have been too. Oh well, can always come here and catch up.

Wish I would have known they were in Nebraska. I would have been there in less than half a day. Southeast Kansas. Anyway, it’s refreshing to know that with all the success you have, you go out and spend time doing fun stuff.

I just went fulltime from home in November 2006, so I am still in the freaked out stage where I feel the need to be at my keyboards 24/7. Thanks for all the inspiration dude. If all the haters pull their heads out of their ass and realize you have no obligations to respond to them, they might value your responses more. Some people are unteachable though.

Best,
Ruck

Of course he has 3 diet pepsi cans, how else is he going to wash down that bag of chocolate doughnuts?

Hahaha, you got the hookups Shoe.

And re Shamrock calling Shamrock a dick, you got some balls too!

[Reply]
Blackbeard said on August 18th, 2007 at 10:40 pm

Shoe, most people know Ken Shamrock from his days as a WWF/WWE wrestler, not his UFC fighting. I still remember him in UFC 1. He was never a very humble guy, but at one point he was an amazing UFC fighter.

[Reply]
Click Input said on August 18th, 2007 at 10:41 pm

I think that was Matt Hughes?

JB said on August 18th, 2007 at 11:04 pm

Your title should be Meeting Houston Alexander And Ken Shamrock. Not the other way around, why are you giving the dick’s name first.. Was it subconcious? Put the black guys name first show some respect.

Now he’ll just lay you out the next time you see him!

Ahh apologies, I didn’t realise he had changed sports. Only ever remember him from the WWF days, as Blackbeard said.

Life if an internet marketer,hobnobbing with the UFC guys! Ken Shamrock a dick? Seems quite possible, although I wouldn’t say it to his face either!

Q said on August 19th, 2007 at 9:31 am

Shoe,

just wanted to introduce myself. i’m a regular reader of your blog and hope you keep it up. you’re definitely an inspirational figure.

that being said…i’m freakin jealous of your ufc perks. i think it remains to be seen how good houston really is. i always felt the dean of mean was a bit overratted and that liddell will run right through him. regardless, i’m jealous you met him. not so much on the shamrock part. hehe

You should have challenged them to a match in a giant bowl of pudding. That would get their respect.

Jason said on August 19th, 2007 at 1:43 pm

You look like the biggest badass of them all.

[Reply]
PrintnPost said on August 19th, 2007 at 2:42 pm

I grew up doing martial arts so I love watching the UFC..but fighters are a whole different breed of people. they are 1) real humble 2) 100% jackass

[Reply]
johnny said on August 19th, 2007 at 11:05 pm

Hey Shoe, how tall are you - appears you have height advantage over the two boyz! As for the xlarge shirts you request for t-shirt fridays, why not go for the large - you’re in great shape dude, the xlarge looks way to baggy!
If you’re a betting man, who’s going to win on saturday - your boy Josh or GSP?

[Reply]
Cristián said on August 20th, 2007 at 12:02 am

You look almost as badass as them

pretty cool shoe. too bad ken was a dick, he was an amazing fighter.

and wtf is going on remembering him from WWF? holy crap I must be getting old, I remember him leaving MMA to do WWF for a while, then he came back to MMA.

he didn’t “switch sports” from WWF to MMA lol…he has always been MMA

That’s an excellent idea! WEBMASTER CAGE MATCHES! Joel Comm has the next internet millionaire, Shoe can have the UFC version.
