No, he and the UFC and far from being on good terms, it would only happen if the fans demanded it and all the new TUF fans dont know who he is and all the hardcore fans don't like him because he left the UFC stating lack of competition and has refused to fight anyone of a serious ranking yet (save Renzo Gracie which he was losing the fight anyways before he got DQ'd). He is a legend when it comes to developing cardio techniquies, he studies the human body and physiology so when it comes to maintain high energy levels in the ring, Frank is an expert but until he steps up and fights a top 10 opponent he will be all talk in my book.
Will Frank Shamrock ever fight in the UFC again?
No, he's under contract with strikeforce, he's afraid to fight top guys in fear of tarnishing his legend status, and he left the UFC on bad terms (although ownership has changed from SEG to Zuffa).
On a side note, he slated to fight Phil Baroni in strikeforce in the not too distant future.
Reply:Probably not. He has shown a tendency to not want to play by the rules (fight against Renzo Gracie). I know I wouldn't want to fight somebody that wouldn't fight me on equal footing. I mean really, after the Renzo Gracie fight he was implying that Renzo wasn't as good of a fighter even though he gave him a concussion with an illegal set of blows. Who wants to put up with that?
Reply:I don't think so cause Dana White had some unkind things to say about him a few months back %26amp; you can asure when you get on his bad side, you'll never see the light of day in UFC. (ex.Noah Inhofer from The Ultimate Fighter 3)
Reply:Seriously doubt that he will be fighting much more professionally, he's getting pretty old. Don't get me wrong, he's still a badass, and a standup man in the world of MMA. And in the case of him fighting Tito Ortiz, who is not the best but still damned good, Shamrock got stomped each time.
Plus he says he's retired now.
Reply:Doubt it. He didn' t get paid **** when he was in ufc, and hes making more money right now in Elite. I would like to see him back in the UFC tho.
