Frank Shamrock has stood at the intersection of many of mixed martial arts' most important developments. As a fighter, he was at the vanguard of cardiovascular and endurance training. As a self-promoter, he charted a course for how to draw a record attendance without a television platform. As a businessman, he was involved in ventures that made several things clear about the essence and financial realities of the sport.

Always an honest interview, Shamrock has sharpened his perspectives on the fighting life and business in retirement. In his new book "Uncaged," the man born Frank Juarez delves deep into childhood trauma, juvenile incarceration and fight politics.

In a special two-part "Sunday Sitdown" interview, Shamrock joined Sherdog Radio Network "Rewind" host Jack Encarnacao to delve deeper into the pivotal moments he was a part of in the development of MMA. From the Tito Ortiz fight, to the Lions Den, to selling out HP Pavilion, to retiring after falling to Nick Diaz, Shamrock brings an edgy, sharp insight in these two one-hour installments.

Part 1 premiered on last Sunday's Rewind, and can be downloaded here. In it, the 39-year-old Shamrock discusses his youth, his delinquency, training under Ken Shamrock, fighting while scared for his life in Pancrase, and the revelatory moments in the 1999 classic fight versus Ortiz.

Part 2 premieres on this Sunday's "Rewind," which begins at 9 p.m. ET. Shamrock talks about life at the peak of his ascension in the sport, his emotional attachment and contributions to Strikeforce, Dana White, and how so many things came undone.

Don't miss one of the most in-depth interviews ever conducted with Frank Shamrock, only on the SRN Rewind.

Frank Shamrock, on “The Savage Dog Show,” stating his belief that Lorenzo Fertitta (Pictured) will have a more significant role in handling big-money deals as the UFC continues to grow:

“Now that they’re this giant global brand in sports, I have a feeling Lorenzo will be sitting down with the suits in some of those meetings. I just think we’re at a new level. Dana’s still going to be Dana and be the character that he is, but we’re talking real big, big money now.”

Live radio returned to The Sherdog Radio Network Monday with new episodes of "The Savage Dog Show" and "Beatdown" radio shows.

Greg Savage was joined by Jordan Breen on the latest episode of "The SDS." The two men shared their thoughts on last Saturday night's UFC 128 card. They were also joined by Frank Shamrock who responded to Jared Shaw's accuasations of Shamrock's proposal to work a fight on CBS against Kevin Ferguson. Randy Gordon from "Sirius Fight Club" also joined the show.

On "Beatdown" Jack Encarnacao and myself were joined by MMA trainer Greg Jackson. Greg was in the corner of Jon Jones Saturday night in Newark, New Jersey when "Bones" defeated Mauricio Rua to capture the UFC light-heavyweight title. Jackson is also the trainer of former 205 pound champ Rashad Evans. Jackson comments on Jones performance, the strategy involved in the Rua fight, and the subject of teammates fighting one another.
