Shonie Carter, Underappreciated Fighter?

Friday, November 30th, 2007

Shonie Carter recently interviewed with Fight Hype. In his interview, it was totally Shonie Carter whillin’ style. That guy is the man.. “keeping it real”. Check out some of these quotes, and then head on over to Fight Hype to read the entire article.

PC: You feel like you are overlooked?

SC: Yeah. There’s guys in the UFC that have dropped like 3 or 4 fights in a row. People mimic their shit off of me and I can’t get in. I’m up to…that was my 203rd fight. What the fuck else do I gotta do? I look at guys like Chris Leben, Pete Sell and Phil Baroni; all had 3 or 4 losses in a row and they can still get in. Guys come into the UFC, first gift is to fight Quinton Jackson for a world title and now he’s about to fight Anderson Silva for the title.
PC: You’ve been in the game so long Shonie, it seems like you should have more opportunities.

SC: Right. I’m doing a seminar at the Martial Arts Expo and they were calling me begging me to do a seminar. They got guys doing shit in Jiu Jitsu that I was doing in ’98 and they getting on the cover of a magazine. I’m like, that shit’s old. Karo getting credit for judo and I’ve been throwing people since 2000 and 2001. He was in high school when I was doing that shit. Joe Riggs told me one time, “You know Shonie, when I saw you fight for the first time, I was in 4th grade.” I’m like, ain’t that a bitch. He’s in main events and I’ve had 5 legitimate world titles. Go look at my MySpace page and tell me what belts you see and 3 or 4 belts were missing. I have respect for the young guys. I don’t have nothing against them because they doing what they do, but I’m like, what the fuck? I love Randy Couture to death, but he came off of a TKO loss and fought for a title. Grant it, he won, but what the fuck man! I’m fighting 3 or 4 fights in that many weeks and if I didn’t have a pinched nerve, I would be fighting this week. I called California for the seminar and they want me to do a 2-hour seminar and I’m like, sure, why not, just tell me where the funky dividends are at. I’m not making it hard; fly me out, put me in a hotel and put me in the Expo. People ask why do I think I deserve this. Man, before you could spell mixed martial arts…before you seen it, I did it. I was there before Matt Hughes. When Matt Hughes was a wrestler and he was a freshman, I beat him. They don’t want to hear that.

When is Ultimate Fighter Shonie Carter Fighting?

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

Shonie Carter is too funny… He always finds a way to draw attention to himself. Remember how he bedazzled everything in the TUF house? I was recently browsing myspace and found this picture of Shonie. Little outstandingly pimpish? Even though he may be a bit of a class clown, did you know that Shonie has over 50 professional fights? That’s pretty impressive. Gotta give him props for that. I’ve been searching to find out when Shonie fights next… However, I couldn’t find anything other than Marcus Davis – which was back in 2006. Anyone know anything about future Shonie fights?
