Why this card matters
His first solo card in a UFC-licensed product, from the portrait half of the 150-card Round 2 checklist (cards 1-100 are fighter portraits, 101-141 bout cards, 142-150 cageside staff). For most fighters the Round 2 portrait is the card that gets treated as the rookie; in Shogun's case the checklist explicitly does not flag it, which is the clearest signal that his card history starts somewhere other than Topps.

- Base #82, portrait format, solo subject
- Sits between #81 Kevin Randleman and #83 Joe Stevenson in the Round 2 checklist
- Round 2 base parallels run Gold, Silver, Onyx, Ruby /8 and Diamond 1/1; no parallel of #82 is individually documented
Disputed
Parallels are left empty rather than assumed: the archive's set record documents Round 2's parallel tiers at set level, but no source consulted confirms a specific parallel of #82, so none is listed. The TCDB checklist behind that set record is the archive's own stored copy, with no second checklist to set against it.
