Thread: jake shields

I was high on Jason Miller as well before.........................not anymore

the fact is that miller had to hurt jake shields when he had the chance and didn't. Can't blame Jake for clay guidoing his way to victory because his punches are feather light    i hate clay guida not sure why everyone loves that guy...  just rump rides to try and get a decision can't take it. no sure you can even blame miller there... he got beat in a wrestling match by a very good wrestler and nothing else.

how is shields ranked in top ten

theres lots of fighters out there who wrestle their way to a victory, so i'm not hating on shield ...i actually thought the first 3 rounds were a good ground war...each fighter would jockey for position repeatedly...it wasn't one fighter in another's guard, throwing a body-body-head combination, with the occasional elbow... but afterwards tho, it did get a lil boring... overall, i've seen way more boring fights, this one...

neither one of these fighters deserves any credit whatsoever. Miller has terrible takedown defense, on top of that he was constantly being mounted once it was on the ground. Shields has ZERO striking ability and ZERO finishing ability. After numerous full mounts and having Miller's back...NOTHING HAPPENED. Terrible fight. I stopped watching.

Someone was saying that Shields only job is to win. If StrikeForce were smart they would never schedule this clown ever again. These guys main job is to be entertaining. Didn't happen in any of the 5 rounds. Miller is entertaining if he has someone in there that actually wants to fight.

Holy Chit man, Miller looked good at times

i dont know what to say about shields. I love jiu jitsu yet i just find him extremley boring. Too much lay-n-pray, not enough submission attempts. I felt like when he was mounted he missed a couple armbar openings too.

C'mon be fair. Shields is only interested in winning fights, not crowd-pleasing. He's fighting a bigger man and did what he had to. He's not a favourite of mine, but it's up to someone to beat him.
