UFC Legend Ken Shamrock (26-12-2) and his son, MMA fighter Ryan Shamrock (1-0-0) have both signed multi-fight contracts with Elite XC.

Once known as "The World's Most Dangerous Man", Shamrock is known for his early octagon wars with Royce Gracie and three fight agaist arch-rival Tito Ortiz.

"We're thrilled to have signed Ken and Ryan Shamrock," says EliteXC Live Events President Gary Shaw. "Ken is one of the most recognizable and popular figures in MMA. He has fought the biggest and some of the most important fights in MMA history. Ken is responsible for putting MMA on the worldwide map and making it what it is today. I have the utmost respect for all the Shamrocks. Believe me, I have signed fighters with EliteXC and many more in boxing, but I can truly say I'm as excited about this signing as I have ever been."

Both father and son will fight Saturday, March 8, at Wembley Arena in London, England at EliteXC Presents: Cage Rage 25.
