Jake Shields Trains for Jason "Mayhem" Miller Strikeforce Fight

[WWCTeto]

Shields Idk y u doing handpacks and practice muy Thai u were just hugging mayhem u Fagget.u boring to watch ...u useless fuck Probly that's y u jump him chuzz u don't fight

[nielskicksass]

mayhem is the best

[raff2112]

lol shields havnt fought koscheck so u dont know shit

[ironmaidenowns]

1:02 tripped me the hell out.

[nujtxeej]

I don't get these people, one moment they are friends and the other. They are beating each other after a fight.

[BootyBot]

@nujtxeej its how the industry works. its usually nothing personal, they are just competing athletes.

[berner]

I like what I see in the interview. I'm sick and tired of hearing guys do the whole "I'm gonna go in there, and fuck the guy up 'cause I'm fucking amazing" schtick during interviews.

[wccrispy]

Mayhem has one more fight on his contract with Strikeforce. I'd love to see him in the UFC again to take on Jake Shields and show Jake what he missed out on in their last lay-and-pray debacle.

[jaycosta7]

@wccrispy Dana White says on a youtube quote right here on Shields site that Mayhem is a second rate fighter who fights to survive and that is what he did with Shields and Jacare.

Mayhem was ranked 18th when he fought Shields, he is no longer ranked in the top 25. Don't think you will see him in the UFC,

[maxpower789z]

@jaycosta7 I don't know, man...that choke looked pretty good, IMHO...he had Shields beat...shouldwouldacoulda, though...a few seconds is all it would've taken...I mean, he fought Shields and Jacare for MW titles, that doesn't make him a chump exactly

[jaycosta7]

Jake is the Man !!!

[paulcfc10]

i thought kampmann beat him i thought kampmann won the 2nd and 3rd rounds

[khazal12]

he trained striking? you'd have never guessed since he didn't want to stand with Mayhem for more than 3 seconds. Plus the closest anyone came to finishing the fight was Mayhem by RNC. So then this guy gets to go to the top of the UFC straight away when Mayhem isn't even mentioned as someone the UFC would want? yeah sure that makes sense lol.

[matchbax21]

Boring fucking fighter

[Justin22Kurtis]

Shields is finally in the UFC!

[MrJrock0907]

sick of this shit talk on people's video's god....josh koscheck vs jake shileds would be a great fight...no would get dominated...and for anyone to say josh koscheck has nou bjj game is bs...you know where he trains and who he trains with.....a couple of the guys at my gym have gone to aka and rolled with him and he's one of those gusy that you dnt get anything on.....

[mixmaster2669]

@MrJrock0907Shields has trained at AKA for years, had to stop when he went to the UFC.

I know two guys who are regulars at AKA and they say Shields does really good with Kos and Fitch (he choked Fitch out at the Gracie Open) Fitch told Sam Caplan that "Jake Shields is the most underrated fighter in MMA." and "he would do fine against the top welterweights in the UFC" This was last summer.

It is not that anyone of them dominates, its more even. They have helped each other prepare for fights.

[jbearisbeast]

brystr2 you need help cause shields isnt near as good a wrestler as koscheck and his standup isnt either so that wasnt smart and jake shields is strikeforce wich is under the ufc and shields is overated, ass strikeforce has is gilbert melendez and mayhem haha and now dan henderson shields reminds me of gsp he never finishes a fight just goes for descisions

[diularsing123]

dude Shields is a great fighter, but not good enough to take on GSP, he has problem dealing with Jason Miller, while a weaker GSP beat him ages ago, I am not sure did Miller improve, but GSP improved a lot more since the fight

[mixmaster2669]

Congrats on another great fight Jake, to bad Miller had to bring shit to your party.

He should beat someone in the top 10 before asking for a rematch. Dude he fought was not in Top 100, no disrespect it takes nuts and hard work to step in the cage, but come on.

[Soldier9280600]

STFU faggot Jake go jump someone you loser

[Cawrestlermoto101]

haha shields does not have it all

hes got amazing ground game

and decent ground and pound

and i think he has decent standup i just think he knows he can win the fights on the ground has very little confidence in his striking

but overall a boring fighter to watch if you dont understand

ground work

but i respect him

[badfiShv]

Jake Shields is a maniac, guys a monster he has it all

[eagledynasty81]

@badfiShv he has it all? Are you fucking joking?

[hbeezey]

@badfiShv yea especially that lay and pray

[slappy815]

he sucks

[wmanzare]

you were so lucky ,

[progers08]

I swear Jake is the best of the best. I love the fact that I have met him and I am getting to know him. He is pound 4 pound the greatest pro mma fighter from san fransisco in the welterweight division. I am glad Gilbert is taking the Lightweight division.

[mixmaster2669]

Jake has been texting Strikeforce asking for a fight with Dan Henderson.

PROPS to JAKE!

[tanglestrangle]

You can see the choke is not in, in the photos the one from top are good' But you an see it on the video clearly Millers hands in blue gloves on the side of Shields head.

Shields said when he heard 9 seconds, he just held on to Millers hands relaxed and waited. If grapple you saw it, if you don't nine secs without blood you are out cold.

Shields jumped up when the gong went off, if it was locked in you would be very slow and probably need help. It could have gone either way.

[brystr2]

no doubt dude, it was great that he got Jakes back, but it was not in. Funny how view point from people that have never grappled are so different that people who have

[TheDozer5]

@brystr2 is taht funny?

or is it just obvious.

[lilsm555]

@tanglestrangle The choke was in what are you blind lol or a troll?

[mixmaster2669]

Since St. Pierre said the stuff about Shields being a dream fight, he has said on at least 2 other sites that Shields is the fight he is interested in.

[13seven13]

erickeown1 YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE. I HAVE SEEN YOU ON SO MANY OF SHIELDS SITES WRITING DOZENS OF SHIT POST PER SITE.

TALKING TO YOURSELF. WHEN YOU SEE YOUR SELF ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTIONS IT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING.

I NOTICE PEOPLE ARE GIVING YOU THUMBS DOWN.

[oakmantex]

Hey ziccoo123, you are an angrt guy, relax a liittle, look at photos and you will understand what Shields is said. The front forarm is crushing down on his low chin, and, the other arm or even hand is not behind his head.

Miller might have been able to sink it all the way in, but Shields has fought his way out of simuler spots in the past.

[tanglestrangle]

GSP said on ifight365, that there were a couple dream fight in MMA one is Fedor vs Brock Lesner, and the other is Jake Shields vs GSP. Then he said " I think Shields would beat me in a grappling match, but I feel confident I could beat him in MMA, but there is only way to find out. "

Oh Yeah lets find out !!! I feel confident that that Shields would win.

[ziccoo123]

its funny. the only people who watch strikeforce are shields and fedor clapping seal fans strikeforce is like AAA baseball its the minor leagues. you never hear anyone say their dream is to one day be the strikeforce champion. that being said. shields is a lower and sits in the minor leagues because he cant compete. mayhemwon that fight with that choke. id say the only strikeforce competitor who would do well in the ufc are mousasi and overeem evenstill neither would ever come close to the title

[tanglestrangle]

I really liked this fight. Shields finished his last eight opponents, and I was able to watch seven of those fights live. Six of them ended in the first round, one in the second. All dominate victories. Miller's good defense gave us a chance to enjoy a beautiful display of grappling genius.

[oakmantex]

Great job Jake. Just keep on winning.

[jaycosta7]

Shields now 13 in a row, with wins over Lawler, Daley, Thompson, Okami, Pyle, Sakurai, Condit, Verissimo, Kikuchi, Miller etc. Eight of last nine by stoppage.

Jake was top 10 before this streak started five years ago. P4P in Sports Illustrated,Inside MMA, Sports Today.

Shields has 13 Top 20-30 wins and six Top 10 wins. Swick and Hardy have 2 top 20-30 wins each and  NO Top 10 wins and one of them will face GSP next.

[ziccoo123]

did you watch the fight? miller owned shields. superior wrestling is the only reason shields ran away with this. next time miller should just hold the choke after the bell. miller won this one by submission.

[D26808]

@jaycosta7 I seen the fight with Verissimo live and Shields stopped him early in the first round... I am impressed with this guy...

[peanutbutterblah]

Jake the "Monkey-jawed" Shields!!!

[peanutbutterblah]

Jake the "Shit-Head" Shields!!!

[l3lip]

Funny how these kids are hating yet they wouldn't do jack shit to Shields in any type of fight haha.

[13seven13]

erickeown1, so many posts hating on Shields, l thought it was a lot of people, but it was mostly you.. Shields is on a 13 fight win streak,Menne, Okami, Condit, Thompson,Lawler, Pyle, Daley, Sakurai, Verissimo, Miller etc,

P4P in Sports Illustrated, Inside MMA.

[mixmaster2669]

Shields DID signal Big John, you can see him bend down low to check it out, then he nods at Shields and stand up.

Shields also popped right up at the bell. I been doing BJJ and sub wrestling for a long time if Shields was even close to going out he would of been moving real slow. The judges called it 49 to 46, that is 4 rounds to 1. GSP couldn't tap Miller Jacare couldn't either last time was was 7 or 8 years ago. Everyone knows Mayhem walks at 210 to 215lbs, not unusual for MW's.

[ziccoo123]

you are an idiot. he did move slowly and even admitted and does not deny that that choke was in. miller won that fight.

[newbombturk99]

Shields vs GSP would be so boring - ZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZzzzzz

[erickeown1]

i think gsp is boring, but i think this would be the easiest fight gsp has had in a while. hell own ever aspect of the fight and would finish jake

[ughugh2007]

Maybe not boring, but it would be over quick!

[mixmaster2669]

Great display of grappling at it's best, Miller came in with 13 sub wins and never been stopped. Miller weighed 209lbs on fight night, Shields 191lbs.  Weight not really a big difference in the fight, Shields is just to good even for another expert like Mayhem. People been saying someone with great subs and stand up is all it would take to end Shields long run. Nope, not for a long time.

[erickeown1]

dude your retarded, u r jaking stuff up. shields said hed be coming in around 195, and being he weighed 194 on bully beatdown i believe him. and mayhem was subbed early in his career to a guillotine. and mayhem does NOT cut 24 lbs. he said himself he and jake will be about equal size, mayhem has said b4 he fight at 195-200. sum1 with great wrestling and dubs bc everyone has better stand up than jake. dominant position, laying on him several min. against cage not working isnt dominant

[oakmantex]

Shields put his pointing finger up and moved it in a circle and gave Big John the its cool sign. Said he was starting to fight the choke and saw the clock with 10 seconds so he relaxed and waited it out. It was cutting about half air flow Miller needed to ajust it to make it work, but either didn't know or was afraid of losing it if he started moving around.

[erickeown1]

and the choke was deep, he had it, jakes face was purple. so keep on sucking jakes dick with your bogus facts. if it werent for a mistake by timekeeper jake would have been napping, and mayhem would be champ. jake won 3 rounds i agree he won by 10 point must rules, but his style is pussyfied, and the crowd hated it and booed jake like crazy. he even said hed stand to make it exciting, well he didnt of course. mayhems bjj> jakes bjj, he proved it

[erickeown1]

and jake shields did NOT put his finger in the air and move it in a circle, both of his hands were on mayhems hands trying to break the choke. his eyes were bulging and his face was purple. dont get online feeding bullshit lies from your head pathological liar. you know jack shit about mma, and apparently you have a homosexual fantasy about jake shields ya faggot

[acidrun]

Mayhem was the better fighter imo, however Shields won the matches and the rounds.. Mayhem showed really nice skill but most of the fight he was just sitting on his ass getting controlled by Shields.. and all of u guys complaining about a boring match... go watch WWE or something.. MMA is about skill not how manly and extreme it looks.. and ground game is as important as stand up. By the way I thought the fight was crazy.. really really nice moves by both guys.. never seen ground game like that.

[AAbreu004]

last night fight was fake ass fuck. its so sad for the sport of mma. Shields vs mayhem

[Eaglekid34]

Jake Shields was given that fight by the worst ref ever... "Big" John "Fat ass that never stands shit up" Mcarthy. Pitiful fight to say the least, mayhem is the better fighter, almost submitted faggot shields with a RNC, and shields did nothing but lay there, i hope shields and mcarthy enjoyed sucking each others dicks while the judges jerked off to it after the fight. Fuck Shields, Mayhem will win a rematch!

[xchargerOUx]

You should of watched the re-runs with your "Dana White Shaft Licker" self...XD

[fknturd]

You're delusional.

[timbulb]

I agree, Shields blueballed him and was saved by the bell.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Jake agreed it was on tight but knew how much time was left so relaxed to save energy for the next rounds and did not originally fight it off much, makes sense since he got the choke on pretty easily.

[erickeown1]

dude, being choked does NOT conserve energy! he did NOT let mayhem choke him. i used to train and being choked for just a few seconds fatigues you and steals your cardio, u would NEVER let anyoneget a choke on you no matter how little time is left. and watch the video, jake wasnt relaxed, he was purple and a few seconds from a nap

[oakmantex]

You don't stand up someone in a dominate position. When there was a stalemate, Shields trying to pull Miller off the fence etc. John did his job. Great Grappling match. Also need a rule to put fighters on the ground when they circle and throw a jab every once in a while.

[53catman]

cant wait for cung le to get back and beat the shit out of boring ass jake shields, show him how a real championship match should be fought

[53catman]

jake shields wins another boring decision last night hooray

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Jake dominated the fight, Vegetarian power.

He put the fight where he wanted and thats what champions do. Now Middle and Welterweight Champ

Shaq and Wilt were not the best free throw or 3 point shooters but dominated where they were best. He imposed his will and made it a ground game. I like the jui jitsu better than boxing aspect anyways

Regardless he beat Daley who is at the top of the UFC. Keep proving the meat heads wrong like the many other healthy veg athletes that save animals

[MattStrikerIsGod]

The fight was incredible. Great match. For the people that appreciate the real back and forth grapping and wrestling skills it was beautiful, for the ones who want people punching the shit out of each other, watch Fedor vs Rogers. Jason Miller is great, but Shields was on top of his game. I think Mayhem was a little too cocky and that eventually led to his downfall. Badass fight regardless.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Jake the Vegetarian Shields is one of the best p4p and is the Strikeforce Champion.

He controlled Mayhem with his strength and kept the fight where he is best. If you did not like the chess match then watch boxing. If you are good at something say hitting baseball and okay at golf, talk all you want, when you are on his level all of his opponents respect him and his black belt.

Jake is also a life long Vegetarian too as many top athletes!

shields put up a good fight but mayhem got robbed

[BoGuSknowsBeSt]

shields is a bitch, one dimensional, cant strike...hits like my fuckin grandma...fuck him

[cahoon9252]

shields sucks he should be competing in wrestling.. not an mma artist= hes a pusssy

[CoOopAkid2008]

when is the fight

[Pavee1987]

tonight 11/07/09 on CBS at 9pm...but its over already, still luking for the fight

[MaxZUber]

Shields won by decision, personally i beleive Jason should have won, it was pretty equal tho.

[ThaCrow7]

I don't mean no disrespect but how was that equal. Miller was on his back the whole time and kept getting taking down. He got a couple of shots but nothing damaging to Jake.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Jake Shields a life long Vegetarian (on website bio) is gonna beat down Mayhem.

Miller is a Bully to Animals, wearing his FUR coats and crap. Check out this sites videos FURisDead (dot) com with dogs and baby white seals and skinned alive. He is either a bully or ignorant.

[itlax18]

ur a pussy go push ur fuckin hippie shit somewhere else dont push it where people get paid to beat the shit out of each other. go off and write about it on a blog or something fuckin peta bitch

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

When you have something intelligent to say we can talk.

Pussy shit, lol you are trying to act like a tough guy online that makes you pathetic.

[itlax18]

im not trying to act like a tough guy if you wanna be vegan go ahea but dont go fuckin pushing it on everyone else

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

pushing, forcing whatever you want to call it. I call it promoting just like all the fast food businesses commercials that you should also compain about then if you have any consistency. They push it on all of us.

Pushing and forcing is what we do to animals, you just must fell guilty and defensive. The truth sucks.

[itlax18]

ya know what then your just as bad as the fast food conglomerates that push there food except that there pushing a business and thats how they make a living ur pushing a lifestyle choice so you can either shut ur fucking mouth or go cry about the animals

[Kin94285]

If u want to go vegan do it in ur own time, its annoying and disturbing when u come on youtube with the vegetable version of "girl power", and equally retarded.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Its related to fitness, health and Jake Shields. Does someone feel guilty and defensive here?

I mention something that has importance, substance and is relative and some think that they are going to suppress free speech. You suck and are pathetic.

Tell all of the fast food commercials that promote the same thing you hypocrit.

[DGTLFRIEND]

I have seen Jake and he is more than ready for this fight.

Jason "Mayhem" Miller, although your a cool down to earth dude, your gonna get over powered.

Jake in the 2nd minute of the third round.

Owe, and Jake stay out of Jason's Guillotine..

The Body Repair Man

[egdar20]

I actually think mayhem is going to take this fight, I mean mayhem has the standing advantage imo and and while  shields is a great bjj fighter mayhem has great submission defense (i.e GSP) and I don't think shields can control him on the ground but hey who knows i could be very wrong but in my opinion miller will take this one via decision.

[blanne07]

couldnt say it better my-self fella,alot of people are under estimating mayhem,which is a bad move,miller can dance with the best of them,and i like your-self think he will go the distance and take this by decision.

[erickeown1]

mayhem lacks somewhat in wrestling and jake will have an advantage, mayhem doesnt have great striking but he has an advantage standing. jake has a bjj advantage but miller is notoriously difficult to finish. imo this all comes down to mayhems takedown defense. if he stuffs them he will finish jake. i think shields neds a loss badly. he is getting overconfident and is saying hed beat gsp and anderson silva. thats ridiculous

[happykid323]

I think this is ridiculous. Since when has being confident in your skills and the ability to carry them forth effectively into battle signifies overconfidence? The bottom line is that he's a fighter and of course he will say that. When asked about fighting Anderson Silva, does GSP say he thinks he WON'T beat him?  He's a fighter and warrior, I would expect him to say he has the ability to give Anderson a run for his money, or something to that effect.

[erickeown1]

no, gsp said anderson is p4p best fighter and it would be tough, and he said hed only do it if he had time to gain weight. gsp sounded underconfident of his chances. jake constantly talks about kicking peoples asses, smashing people, knocking their heads off. yeah right, dude is afraid to strike and he has no power, who has he hurt with punches. in my opinion avoiding stand up and submitting people isnt kicking their ass, or knocking their head off.

[erickeown1]

btw he said he'll try to take mayhems head off. when has jake hurt anyone with punches? he has weak standup and he lacks upper body strength. shields is overrated in my opinion, he relys solely on wrestling, bjj. his bjj is sick but it wont help him against gsp, koscheck, alves, i see swick finishing him. he keeps fighting opponents who lack ground skills. mayhem is the worst opponent hes faced in a while, but not a bad opponent for him

[brystr2]

you must be joking or smoking dude, shield would destroy Koscheck, he has no BJJ game and shields is a great wrestler and BJJ black belt, not to mention, he has been doing muay thai for a while now, yes his stand up needs to get better, and it is. And swick, right dude, Jake would have him on his back in about 5 seconds, pass guard on first try, mount and pound swick out, you need to watch less UFC and try training

[RizoSaysAha]

@brystr2 Koscheck could quite easily keep the fight on the feet. Koscheck, even if he is sloppy at times on the feet, is definitely better then Shields standing up.

[sjl36]

@brystr2 lol i dont think u could have owned someone any harder than that. good work! and all those ppl u just mentioned would absolutely be choked b4 they knew what happened to them.

[TylerDurdenK7]

@brystr2 Would not be so quick to rule Koscheck out like that tough. Koscheck have sick explosive wrestling. I don't se Jake Shields getting much better at his striking either, he just isnt a natural striker. But what amazing grappling skills he has! The question would be who would end up at the bottom. Neither guy is very effective off their back.

[Mendoza831]

@brystr2 i think you would change your mind now cause i got KOS all day against shields

[krb0123]

@brystr2 koscheck would knock that pussy jake shields out.

[region1111]

Awesome fight, I'm a fan of shields and mayhem, this is going to kick ass.

[brystr2]

As someone who started jujitsu about a year before ufc 1, I have to say Jake shields is at another level with his grappling, the way he was already a great wrestler, than combined gracie jujitsu is just crazy. One of my fav fighters and I think he is pound for pound best grappler out there

Jake, would love to see you or Nick in the UFC to fight Matt Hughes, would love to see your ground game destroy him and put a final stamp on his career

[erickeown1]

well from his own mouth nick diaz is the only caesar gracie guy with better bjj than himself. he does have great bjj but he has never faced other high level grapplers and subbed them. bj penn fights and completely owns bjj black belts on the ground, demian maia, jacare, big nog all have better p4p bjj than jake imo. i think jake is oo 1 dimentioal though and is very much a modern day royce. he is terribly afraid to strike and you can bet he will be relentless trying to take down mayhem

[brystr2]

have you seen the grappling matches shield vs diago sanchez, and vs drew fickett, he owned them both, and he is only better now

[michaelpkaras]

go jake!!!!!!

[den19852]

Shields should win this, really hard to sub Miller though. Most likely a UD for Shields but should but a great fight.

[Mojo1982]

Good luck Jake, can't wait for the fight.

[Noyjeetut]

He looks great. I picked him, hoping he wins it!
