Shamrock: “The best way that I could describe this is like putting gas into a race car that’s regular gas,” Shamrock said. “It’s not gonna perform to its maximum level, because of all the pressure you’re putting on the engine and pistons, the carburetor and the gas lines and everything that goes into making that thing go fast and perform at a high level. Those things would blow up and blow out if they don’t have what they need to push that big strong engine. And the body is the same way where you’re constantly pushing it beyond the normal level of a human being.”

“They’ll show up at the gym and be like, ‘Pee in this cup,’ or I’ll get a phone call. It’s cool, though. It’s all gravy. They want to make sure it’s a clean sport, because they’ve got these young kids that we’re being role models for.” “These young kids look up to us, and if we’re all on steroids and f-cked up on cocaine and sh-t, then we can’t be role models to these kids. I can understand that. The people behind the game, they just want to make sure sh-t is clean, you know?”

“Hard work, and genetics. I think if you’ve watched me throughout my career, when I try to go and pack on weight, I’m not as lean. When I don’t worry about packing the weight on, and I just worry about my cardio and speed, then I get leaner. That’s just how I’ve been throughout my career. What you’re seeing now is I’m putting in harder work.” “The reason why I’m putting (in) harder work is because I don’t have the reaction time I used to have when I was younger, so that has slowed down a bit. So now I have to work harder to get to the area I want to get to to be able to successfully finish a combination or a single leg. So my work in the gym, I’ve never put this kind of work into my training for a fight, where I have been pretty much fighting for my life.”
