It was a pretty big shock to the mixed martial arts community. Shawn has trained over 20 world champions - Randy Couture, Forrest Griffin, Gina Carano, Vitor Belfort, and many more. One of the times I got a little mouthy with him he said we should spar... As you can see I was a little girl (although I did fire off a pretty good 4 punch combination. IMG_3098.JPG IMG_3105.JPG
