Although Bart was an accomplished fighter and champion, wasn't this particular bout a work like pro-wrestling?
Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
It's true...check it out.
Also does a nice "chicken kick" KO to some poor sap at the end of the clip.

Re: Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
...LOL...you mean Ken "sold" those kicks to the head and the whole match was a "work"? In other words, Bart never actually knocked Ken out.
I don't know. I accepted it since it seems to be posted by Black Belt Magazine. Also, I'm quite a "mark" but I never knew of a pro-rasslin match that involved Mr. Vale though Shamrock has been involved with it.
...this should create some interesting dialouge.

Re: Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
The name of the promoting organization that promoted this event was "Professional Wrestling Fujiwara Gumi" or PWFG for short, It was known for "stiff" matches, you be the judge if you think the finish was a work or not.
We covered this on the San Jose Discussion board in late September, take a look there for several sides of this story.

Re: Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
Although, I would be willing to put a small sum of money into anyones medical care fund if they were to go up to Bart Vale and say that they think his fights in Japan were stagged just like wrasslin.
Double if it's at an event or seminar I'm at so I can see it all live.

Re: Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
Looks pretty fake to me. Now this looks like a real fight of his...

Not as flattering for sure.

Re: Bart Vale KO's Ken Shamrock
One thing is for sure.
Bart Vale is one tough dude, who has done a lot for Kenpo's reputation. That guy is the size of a monster, and yikes, can he kick for his size.
