Shogun was undefeatable at one point.
I remember when his elbow dislocated in the fight vs Marc Coleman....
UP TO THAT THIS DUDE WAS UNDEFEATED AND FOR YEARS AFTER NOBODY WANTED NONE!
Ricardo Arona and Shogun were the dudes that per pound were the most dangerous!

Everyone was undefeated at some point 😂.
