Not really, no. He didn't become a Shadow because he lost a fight. He became a Shadow because the demons that rushed out of the Gates ripped his body apart - he did not really get the chance to fight back. And when he did get to challenge them later, he defeated them all including Titan himself (barring the times the players lost due low level equipment or no skill, but that is not something you would consider from a lore point of view as that's not Shadow's fault, but the player's).
