Biography
Childhood From the age of 12, Frank Juarez was placed in various foster homes, group homes, and crisis centres. Eventually he went to live with Bob Shamrock, who had taken in hundreds of troubled boys (including Frank's older step-brother Ken). Juarez went to live with Shamrock at his home in Susanville, California, and was officially adopted by Shamrock at the age of 21. As his brother Ken did previously, Frank would later change his legal name to Frank Shamrock. Susanville is a city and county seat of Lassen County, California, USA. At the 2000 census, the population was 13,541. ...
Pancrase In 1994, Ken began to train Frank in submission fighting. Frank accompanied his brother to bouts in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and grew to love the sport. He became a member of Ken's training school, the "Lion's Den", and made his debut in the Pancrase organization in December 1994. Ken tried to put his painful childhood memories of his father's abuse behind him but Frank never failed to remind him. After this, they took different ways and Frank has continued to mock this matter in public.

Shamrock went on to defeat Minoru Suzuki on January 28, 1996 to become the Provisional King of Pancrase.

In 1997, Frank had a falling out with Ken and Bob; they would not communicate again until Bob became terminally ill years later. In separate interviews aired Jan. 18, 2007 by Sherdog.com's Beatdown radio show, both Frank and Ken said they remain estranged — Frank claimed Ken has spurned all attempts at reconciliation; Ken accused Frank of treating their adoptive father badly [1]. In an interview with Sam Caplan of sportsline.com, Frank revealed he felt concerned with Ken's training methods, and when he confronted Ken, he was told "You don't have what it takes, you're not going to be a world champion and I want you to run my gyms for the rest of your life." This spurred him on to leave which led to the estrangement both Ken and Bob (who took Ken's side in the disagreement) He also stated that he would be happy to fight against Ken, should the opportunity arise.[2] Ken feels the same way, stating on Sherdog radio network, that Shamrock vs. Shamrock is a distinct possibility, stating that he taught Frank everything he knows and that it's wrong to proclaim yourself "The Legend," a monikor Frank has been using since his return at WEC 6.
UFC Shortly afterwards, Shamrock fought the undefeated Kevin Jackson for the newly created UFC Middleweight title. Enson Inoue had been due to fight Jackson, because the event was scheduled for Yokohama, Japan and the UFC were seeking Japanese fighters to take part, however Shamrock was scheduled to fight Inoue inbetween, so it was decided that the winner of that fight would meet Jackson for the title. Shamrock knocked Inoue out with a knee and then forced Jackson submit to an armbar in 22 seconds to take the middleweight title (which the UFC later renamed the light-heavyweight title). He went on to defend the belt successfully against Igor Zinoviev, Shamrock took Zinoviev down with a powerful slam that knocked him unconscious and broke his collarbone, finishing his fighting career. Kevin Jackson won a gold medal in Freestyle wrestling at the 1992 Olympic Games. ...
