he was in control the whole fight but the effort shamrock put in was incredible. he just wouldn't stay down, so someone else had to give up for him (stoppage due to fatigue).
Shamrock showed incredible warrior spirit! The mistake Shammy made was trying to be a lean and mean kickboxer which failed because he is a mediocure striker at best! he cut too much weight 235lbs down to 201lbs! he should have stayed at 230lbs and focused on getting a submission 'knee bar, kimura e.t.c' he had tons of opportunities to submit Ortiz but worried about striking too much..
