A former UFC, WEC and Strikeforce champion – not to mention a former interim King of Pancrase – MMA legend Frank Shamrock admits he hasn’t had to worry too much about being bullied throughout his life.
That said, it’s becoming very clear to him that he’s in the minority.
“I didn’t know there was this bullying going on because nobody has ever really bullied me,” Shamrock told MMAjunkie.com “It turns out everybody is getting bullied.”
Shamrock officially announced his retirement from fighting earlier this year, but the 15-year veteran of the sport remains on with Strikeforce as a commentator and spokesperson for the promotion.
With his days of competition behind him, Shamrock said he believes it’s now his responsibility to give back to the sport and community that have given so much to him.
“Martial arts saved my life and made me who I am,” Shamrock said. “For me not to do spread that message would be wrong. That’s my job.
“I’m doing charity and trying to help the community and trying to help our kids. I’m worried about our kids now.”
