STRIKEFORCE POSTFIGHT - JAKE SHIELDS talks some trash

[obican21]

man its a shame that shields is sitting there with the belt and not mayhem...

I mean his grappling is great but lets be honest, was that really a fight?

he was just "hugging" mayhems legs and there was also absolutely no power in his punches...he just tried to score, thats fine he won but its a ugly way to win a fight...

that freakin bell saved his ass!

[whoisbrucewayne]

C'mon jake! You grappling is great but the women mma fighters hit harder than you. Why would anyone be scared to fight you?

[g19hoops83]

strikeforce are pussy,ufc is the best.

[ThatKidMTL23]

@g19hoops83 your a pussy and Pride is the greatist

[tanglestrangle]

I remember coming on this site didn't remember posting, got good response, thank ya.

mr 1turdfull--I stand by what I said, look at the evidence. Add the fact that 4-5 seconds without blood to the brain and you are out cold, 2-3 seconds you are groggy and need help getting up.

Ask someone you know that is a purple belt or above to look at the photos. There is a reason grapplers saw this so different than casual fans.

It did look deep when the camera angle was from the back, check top & front.

[mr1derful112]

TangleBitch, your fukin stupid and dont know what the fuk ur talking about

[nimrod74741]

nah, shields is a smary turd.

[Rahll]

Respectfully, I think Strikeforce is a UFC wannabe.

[Jesterjag22]

@Rahll CAPTAIN OBVIOUS

[Hawgboy66]

@Rahll

The UFC doesn't own MMA dude. These are just companies that are coming up. I, as an MMA fan love the fact that there's other places to watch MMA.

Why would I only wanna watch THE UFC?

Alternative is good.

[MrBclary6]

@edunnagan...and apparently ,your just a troll..go find a call of duty chat room somewhere loser

[edunnagan]

your all a bunch of dorks trying to analyze fighting

[RezLife292]

@edunnagan Shut the fuck up bitch, we like fighting and we like talking about fighting. Suck my dick.

[dfp396]

@RezLife292 you hav one hahahaha

[16Regulator]

@MrBtezzi

Yeah... this is the part were you have your posting prviledges taken away.

[audisport]

Cung doesnt want to fight a lay and prayer. Of course he's going to lose if he holds on his leg the entire fight.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Wow, Jake Shields beats a legend in Dan Henderson, what a comeback. Jake has more heart than any ignorant disrepsectful critical computer tough boys. Maybe now UFC GSP bound and a good contract that he deserves. Strikeforce middleweight champ brazenly moved up in weight, one of the best in the world, imposed his will. The life long Vegetarian kills myths. Post his peta2 video to your friends to stop greedy businesses. Miller the animal bully and fur hag was a chump in the aftermath

[racingmylife15]

CUng would beat Jake's ass 10/10 times

[rockinrondogg]

dan henderson's gonna get his ass beat by jake shields, thur proving most of the ufc fighters are overrated

[gymregular]

@rockinrondogg I just watched sheilds beat up anderson! Half of the other guys comments on here are for the birds.

[MrBtezzy]

there is no way jake can beat hendo he cant take him down, and his striking is horible..............he needs to go back to welterweight an better yet wait for it............go to ufc an actually give gsp a challege

[rockinrondogg]

@MrBtezzy jake is gonna beat henderson's ass, and i'm gonna laugh my ass off at all you faggots that are writing him off so easily

[MrBtezzy]

@ rockindogg he has no stand up game and if he did hendo has never been k.o before...and hendo was a olmypic wrestler get real sheild can't win

[rockinrondogg]

this is mma not the olympics, henderson couldn't even beat a nobody like anderson silva, shields could easily beat anyone in the ufc

[MrBtezzy]

bruh anderson silva is a monster...look wat he did to forrest griffen..hendo is gonna beat the shit out of shields....shields is a welterweight, wat he did to miller won't happen to hendo garrented

[gymregular]

@MrBtezzy .did you see the fight? Guess Shields was the one beating up anderson. I'm kinda surprised anderson didn't ko him though early although he almost did twice.

[racingmylife15]

hahahahahaha anderson silva is a nobody? he's the best middleweight atm in the world

[gymregular]

@MrBtezzy no way eh? lol. Did you just see the fight and how easily jake controlled him?

[Bulldog0595]

No way will Jake Shields take Hendo down like he does other fighters. Dan will be the hunter in this one with his vicious right at the ready.

[JRVRSS]

check out mayhems face from 1:17

mayhem classic

[kallador1]

Please god let Hendo smash Shields

[f4iblack]

they got to spend some money on getting better audio fuck every interview is hard to hear

[2LIVESTOLIVE]

I hope Hendo will take the belt from Jake the Fake, and teach him a lesson for this one dimensional hump jit su.

[bleed2d34th]

i wouldnt count jake shields out against hendo, wouldnt be too surprised if he beat him...

[curtiscaudle101]

to be clear, im not a jake shields hater at all..i just dont like hearing people say that hes in the same class as the top ufc guys...you can make the argument hes fought top ten or top 20 guys, but I mean jason miller is no bj penn, hughes or alves...robbie lawler is no anderson silva or nate marquardt..jake needs to face top 5 guys and who knows he may beat them..i just dont like building up fighters who havent faced the best yet..ppl did the same thing with Cung Lee saying he could beat silva

[1969bearcat]

curtisclaudle101 You want to know why your post is getting a negative response. You don't seem to know much about fighters or rankings. These are not all of Shields wins. But Robbie Lawler was a CONSENSUS Top 5 middleweight when Shields went up 15lbs to beat him, Lawler is still Top 10

Thompson was on 13 fight win streak including a KO of Eddie Alverez. Was ranked 9-10, still top 20.

Paul Daley is ranked 8th. Pyle & Miller top 20. Okami Top10 MW, Condit Top10 WW, Sakurai Top 5 WW & so on

[curtiscaudle101]

@1969bearcat lets not get personal pls, i do know about rankings, i love the sport.. but Jake would NEVER jump weight classes like this in the ufc. I mean he could very well go in the ufc and beat everyone. however gsp has beaten penn fitch hughes alves etc, and he deserves much more credit. shields needs work in his standup,and until every fight he fights is against top guys(as gsp does) he will not get the credit that he probably deserves..that being said in my opinion he would never beat GSP

[shoto604]

Jake fought the most boring fight against Mayhem and would have gone unconscious if the bell hadn't rung. I can't wait for Dan to knock him to high heaven.

[curtiscaudle101]

obviously alot of jake shields supporters here as my previous comment received a lot of negative ratings yet nobody responded to it that I can see...instead of clicking a stupid dislike button maybe try responding to what I wrote so that we can have an intelligent debate as MMA fans?

[mixmaster2669]

Shields is fighting on his old welterweight contract, he only fights at MW if he WANTS too.

This is his last fight on his contract, would you take an easier fight against a WW or fight the #2 ranked MW and the # 6 ranked LHW?

I think he will fight Henderson.

[Sociopathzz]

Shields sucks

[fivexcrazy]

dan henderson is very good n he joined strikeforce to beat every 1 in there

[Streethockey4dumbies]

@fivexcrazy henderson will shit kick shields if they fight

[fivexcrazy]

@Streethockey4dumbies for real he will kill him and jake sheilds sucks at standup

[Streethockey4dumbies]

yea and henderson is better on the ground then shields too

[NearlyFreeSpeech]

Zaromskis is gonna fucking kill nick diaz jan. 30

[curtiscaudle101]

pyle thompson daley lawler miller??? its awesome how jake faces nothing but the best...cant help but laugh when i hear that....last five fights were against no top competition...

shields gasses if he cant finish his opponents and his standup is so bad he probably couldnt beat a girl guide in a boxing match

[mixmaster2669]

Jake Shields has been asking Strikeforce for a shot at Dan Henderson. " Hendo is a legend, it would be an honor to fight him" Shields

Props Jake, nothing like challenging the best AGAIN.

[Danny4Aarch]

actually...cung's decision to vacated his belt came way before strikeforce picked opponent for him. it just so happen that his movie deal got pushed back so he decided to fight in the time being. miller needs to get his facts right before making statements.

[tanglestrangle]

Watch the fight again or look at the photos of Miller's choke attempt. Miller has his hands clasped on the side of head not behind it.

The arms are across Shields chin, looks like it hurts, but not likley to finish Shields.

The hands not being behind the head means no pressure. The reason Shields could "relax and wait " when he heard 9 seconds. And also why he could jump up when the bell rang.

[ularphantastic]

look @mayhem's face when coker was jaking.he must've thought 2 more seconds in his choke and they'd be hyping him.

[13seven13]

gqunot Fitch wanted to be payed a small percentage of the money from his image in video games, and action figures.  The UFC ,.unlike Strikeforce wanted it ALL. When Fitch held out, the UFC fired him and his whole AKA team, so he signed his shares away. the UFC then punished him by putting him in the dark, even though he is either #2 or #3 at WW.

[thnk4urself]

yeah that shit is fucked up what they did to Jon Fitch. Dana White never mentions that when he's bitching about Fedor not joining the UFC. I would say Fitch is #2 at WW also. I wish he and Josh Koscheck didn't train together bcuz I would love to see Fitch kick the piss out of Koscheck. Koscheck's a wicked douchebag

[13seven13]

gsp said on ifight365 that Jake Shields would be a Dream Fight, like Fedor vs Lesnor.

then he said " Shields is a tough guy, I think he would beat me in a grappling match, Im being honest, but I think I would beat him in MMA, but there is only one way to find out."

So cool, I like them both and this would be a dream fight for me.

[calibeemer22]

@13seven13 tht would make a great fight man, thx for posting tht

[2LIVESTOLIVE]

Cung is not afraid of Shields, when they fight down the road, Shields will get KTFO. Cung wants to fight 3 rounds only because of the long lay off, but will fight 5 rounds with Shields when he's back without the ring rust. He 's being smart. Shields thinks he can beat Cung is in Fantasy Land.

[eg206550]

I agree with this comment!! Shields will get KTFO!!!

[tanglestrangle]

I thought it was exciting, Jake hasn't gone more than a few minutes lately. Of course a late finish would have been good, but "ya can't always get what ya want"

[jaycosta7]

I don't think mixmaster2669 is saying this was Jake's most exciting fight. I think he was talking about he could destroy much easier opponents at WW and everyone would be saying how great he was. There are only a few people that know it make's a difference who you beat . I'm into grappling so I enjoyed the fight, but a finish is always good. We are greedy, when you remember Shields stopped his last eight and he is fighting up a weight. To a new string of endings!

[jaycosta7]

I love Shields, a long time fan. He dominated a good middleweight jui jitsu fighter. After 8 straight stops, it's to bad he had to put on a ground clinic on CBS where a lot people didn't understand what was going on.

[mixmaster2669]

If this fight was fought in Japan Shields would have owned Miller even more, and it would have been appreciated by the fans for the great grappling.

[raoulthompson]

@mixmaster2669 it was a boring lay and pray fight

[conkanee]

Yep, if this fight was in japan, Shields woulda lost.

Why? because Sheilds made no effort in finishing the fight. This was pretty much a wrestling match, and whenever it got to the feet, Shield's got scared and went for the takedown.

They need to give lest points for takedowns, cause the point of a fight is not to take guys down, the point is to finish the fight, and shields didnt try once to finish anything

[13seven13]

WAR JAKE, its been over 3 years, but someone had to go the distance sooner or latter. Just continue your win streak and start a new finish streak in the next fight. Go Jake !!!

[mixmaster2669]

Shields is a monster, he could be KING KONG at welterweight, Strikeforce has a weak WW division,but they have a deep MW division. A reporter asked Shields if he got paid more for fighting the bigger, higher ranked Middleweights. Jake said no all he gets is "more compelling fights" Thanks for taking the risks for the fucking challenge of it. I have been a fan for a while, but I have to give ya even More Respect.

[oakmantex]

Not a finisher? Shields finished 8 of last 9, Lawler, Daley, Thompson, Pyle etc UfC fighters Jake has beat include Okami, Condit, Menne, Daley and others like "Charuto" Verissimo, Ruthless Robbie, Berger, Jackson and more.

Jake has 13 Top 20-30 wins and 6 Top 10 wins. Swick and Hardy have 2 top 20-30 wins each and NO top 10 wins. One of them will face GSP next. GSP said that Marquarte and Silva "were too big" for him to fight.

[JBomber22]

he said that he would put on some muscle and move up once he becomes the greatest WW of all time...he said he wouldnt fight marquart because they are training partners

[21asoke]

this fight was so fucking boring. Proof that this is not the same level as UFC

[EHNZROCKSLUTS]

Mayhem is a fucking douche bag here.

[gqunot]

Shields too boring of a fighter. I don't think UFC wants another Jon Fitch or Thales Leites. So I don't see Shields going to the UFC.

[theonemanparty7]

i love watching thales leites and jake shields? what is your problem with sumissions? do you understand submissions? i guess it doesn't matter but last time i checked jon fitch has beaten everybody except GSP. clearly has the talent leval.

[gqunot]

Jon Fitch is a good fighter. But he's too boring. Their a reason why after the GSP fight his next fight was on a prelim fight. Also not doging Fitch but like Shields their not finsher and not exciting. Theirs a reason why Shields isn't signed with the UFC. He's simply too boring and doesn't care about the fans.

[shifty2283]

agreed.plus fitch has better stand up.

[2LIVESTOLIVE]

Ladies and Gentleman, the new Strikeforce Humping Champion.

[TeenVariety]

Boring Snuggler!! Ha Ha, Miller is hilarious..

[signboyy]

i think cung is afraid to fight fighters with good take down skills.

there is nothing boring about ground game if you understand all of the moves and tactics. its much more complex and cerebral than standup. people who are bored with ground game are usually dumb and know nothing about bjj.

[eastendlukey]

please teach us your mighty knowledge.

[signboyy]

i dont have mighty knowlege. my knowledge level is average. but a knowlege level far above yours i think.

[eastendlukey]

wow i'm so jealous. please please teach me master. dumbcunt.

[signboyy]

somebody has to teach you.

why are you getting mad and calling me dumbc*nt?

is it because you dont get much c*nt?

[erickeown1]

the reason someone is afraid to fight someone else is fear of getting beat up. jake shields never beat anyone up, mayhem beat up shields, but shields layed and prayed to victory

[icoronai]

fuck shields, dude cant fight im more interested in seeing mayhem fight again

[eastendlukey]

he wrestled the shit out of him fair and square. but yeah, he is boring.

[erickeown1]

fuck that faggot

[theonemanparty7]

chung lee vacated the belst because he has absolutely no chance in hell at beating jake shiels, he hastn' beaten anybody in their prime, and should be in the running for most overrated fighter of the year. lets see a real goood fight, jacare vs shields.

[erickeown1]

sorry, jake shields is the most overrated. if cung keeps it standing it will be murder, and cung has never been taken down. could go either way but i believe cung is overrated, just not as much as jake

[Huatau]

Shields is a boring as bat shit fighter, him and Cung would be a bad match up from the get go. Cung would beat him imo and then just have to vacate the title again, whats the point really.  TV ratings reflected how boring the Shields/Miller fight was and that was due to Shields. Smith/Le is going to be bombs away which is exciting and entertaining and makes more sense than a Shields fight.

[hoodedhoodlum1]

Shields just pulled in his 4th World Champioship belt in a major promotions!! Sweet.

[Remorse]

Cung dumped the belt and then almost immediately came back because he knows he'll lose against top flight middleweights who can take him down. He's very talented on his feet, but anyone who can take him down is going to make him look foolish. Picture Houston Alexander vs Thiago Silva.

[702decatur]

This guy was not even close to finishing Mayhem, but Jake was close to passing out!!

I hate Jake fuk this guy..

[69sins]

fuck jake shields...all he did was just be on top of miller....miller did more damage...thats why i hope they get new judges in mma and take out judges that score boxing..miller for sure won this fight

[209es1]

u make no sense buddy... miller did more damage standin up but ur sayin we need to take judges that score boxing they dont score boxing there score strikes takedowns sumbmission attempsts ring controll u really dont know wat ur talkin bout just shut up

[69sins]

yeah i make no sense..thats why dana white and other people have said that the judges that are in place right now come from the boxing world..where someone who has thrown a lot of jabs *with no damage* can win the fight when the other guy had clearly done more damage...yeah take downs do score points its stupid when a guy sits on top of the other guy and ends up winningthe fight...like hm jake shields..its u who doesnt know anything idiot..we need judges from a mma background

[209es1]

bro ur really stupid wat did mayham land on jake shields that landed more damages nothing that kake didnt do wat did mayham do in the wrestling game and ground game not a dam thing jake shield dominated thats why he won anfd u still dont make sense just read ur first comment then the 2nd ur so stupid

[erickeown1]

shields dominated my ass! he is the weakest puncher in mma got outstruck badly on the feet and was outclassed in bjj. he showed wrestling dominance the end. he won 3 rounds and took the W but he didnt have a single highlight in the whole fight, none at all. mayhem had a huge slam, a couple of combos on the feet, a suplex and a deep rear naked choke that would have ended the fight if the timekeepers didnt screw up. by dream scoring jake lost badly, but dryhumping wins again

[209es1]

is that y u took off ur first comment cuz u knew u were contradicting ur self u dumbass

[69sins]

i took down my first comment? when u fucking retard? i didnt take out shit fuckface...get the fuck out of here..i like how people have agreed with me..yet ur still making an arguement of me being dumb fuck you and ur fucking mom cause im sure u both know an equal amount of mma...if u want to treat me like a sucker treat me like a sucker

[209es1]

every body who agreed with u r muther fuckers who arent even tru mma fans like u who just saw it for free an saw jake smother him 4 5rounds oh wel it happens sum times he couldn stand wit him so he took him down constsntly an mounted ur just a band wagon fan to this mma shit u stupid bitch look at the facts here really ur just a dumb ass go watch boxing and k1 if u want to see only strikes and from the looks of it u did take off ur comment cuz u know ur wrong u fuckin liar

[69sins]

lol from the looks of it? how bout u try scrolling down...lol yeah jake smothered him..lol hey i like how people can smother people *just lay on top of them* and win a match!!!....if the other guy hits more and lands more powerful punches but he is on the bottom most of the time..wow that means that guy lost the match..peeeeeeeeeace the fuck out!!! lol go suck on your boy jake's dick cause all u care is about guys mounting other guys and staying there..lol fag!!!!

[69sins]

lmao who the fuck said i wanted to watch that? wow u must be retarded....just cause u watch this shit doesnt make u the fucking guru of mma u dumb shit...i like how ur getting butt hurt about me making fun of ur bed buddy!! lol go suck a dick..im outs!!!

[hollafront1314]

if i were cung i wouldnt fight jake either...hes a boring fighter and hed dull the fight..id much rather watch cung vs scott smith..atleast well know itll be a war and not snugfest

[jjoaquin]

Sheilds is great at wrestling and jiu jitsu and in the fight with Miller, he just used those skills to get great positioning. However... the fight was pretty boring. Sheilds would just hold Miller down and doing nothing but trying to advance his position. Really getting tired of these wrestlers who don't know how to strike. Ya, he's using his skills to his advantage but damn was that ever boring

[TEAMHBO]

I'm a boxing fan 1st, but this card was so awesome i enjoyed it! My point is someone like me can enjoy both sports!

[wpiner88]

good to hear !

[kirastrider]

MMA SUCKS??? says the man with the name MrSweetFairy. MMA is the biggest sport in the world today so shut the hell up.

[coltfan4532]

dude i love mma but nfl still is

[sharkman29]

Naphorse...you know jack. Mousasi is amazing. It's obviously you don't know Mousasi, you've probably never seen him fight before. He is one of the best pound for pound in the world, easily.

Fedor is the best mma'r ever.

[tunit20]

Jason Miller was robbed by the bell

[Naphorse]

JAke Shields would get murdered in UFC, same with GayHArd Mousasi i cant believe if coulndt beat sukajoe in the 1st ROund i thought Mousasi was good

[EBWReturns]

Neither could the current #1 light heavyweight world, Lyoto Machida.

[farmerted84]

Are you high ??? Jake beat some of the best welterweights already that are in the UFC...Jon fitch lost to him. I beat you think brock is good too because he fought that heath shitty hearing and beat old man Randy Courture.

[cmnasty]

He beat Jon Fitch in a completely different sport, not MMA.

[CJMariachi]

Mayhems entrance wtf. Why would they do that WWE shit. It was still funny though but whatever.

[handlas1]

cuz thats what mayhem always does

[CJMariachi]

Yeah I not Elite XC use to do that to with some of their entrances. I am just saying that I dont think they need to that anymore just have them walk out with their camp but Mayhem is character.

[DeathKiss72]

shields mostly laid on him. he didnt want to stand up and fight

[styro]

why the fuck is this video loading so damn slow :( fuck you jew tube.

[afel33]

Jew tube?

[Rodchillnano]

Since when do you fight a 5 round fight that you barely win and call out the next fighter. I say rematch, Jake. Your punk ass was 4 more seconds away from sleepytime and you know it. You boring ass bulldogged you way to the win. Fair enough, but one flying knee and you are KO'd. I'm a monkey, yes, but don't pretend that your dumb cage-work would work again and dismiss Miller.

[knuffskillz]

this match last night was decent.. when i saw miller had him in the hold.. i was in my head that's it..and then "DING"... the friggin bell...lol.. jeez how unfortunate though.

[shoegazer666]

look at mayhem's crazy eyes!

i still love that guy.

[TriMOTinHD]

Chug le will rape shields he sucks IMO. Miller is a very good show man and entertaining fighter I'm gonna watch more of him.

[rasofthedead]

miller was beating him but jake kept laying on him-cung le will beat his ass

[jayx531]

lol he thinks cung lee is scared ta fight him . that shit is halarious

[snapacasedd]

Jake Saved By the Bell Shields

[Steadno]

JAKE! JAKE! You lost that fight w/20 more seconds boi!!! you finger tapped too...think we didnt see? miller had you wrapped up like a baby!

[sethvicious]

I like strikeforce but they have a really really shallow roster of fighters

[howcynicalofme]

no offence, but i think you're UFC fan. you shouldn't disrespect other mma fighters just because they are not in UFC. from what i see, this event was just amazing. shallow roster of fighters? you mean the UFc fighters right? right now, strike force has all the best fighters, don't hate. please.

[springfieldwhat]

WOW.....UFC shallow in any weight class now is not true. 6 oof the top 10 LW fighters 8 of the top 10 WW  9 of the top 10 MW 9 of the top 10 LHW and i would say 5 or 6 of the top 10 HW.......all mma is great but the UFC is running shit when it comes to having most of the best fighters in the world......1 more thing....YOURE A FUCKING MORON.......WELCOME TO MMA KEEP WATCHING

[handlas1]

they have Fedor, the number 1 heavyweight. That's what will get people watching. Now they just need to put him on every card ;/...somehow.

I was looking forward to 3 out of the 4 broadcasted fights personally. Too bad Miller vs Shields was pretty boring and I wish Mousasi vs Soko... would of ended in a better way instead of him just gassing and taking hits until the ref saved him.

[sethvicious]

no offense but you are delusional

[legalizemarijuananos]

my sister hits harder then this twat. I 've never heard someone grunt so loud when throwing a light tap to the head like jake shields. what a pathetic fighter. laying on top of someone and does absolutley nothing. pathetic.

[TWIGST3R]

your sister really does!

[TheRicharBurke]

If Mayhem could get some wrestling skills then watch out for that kid.

[MixedTracialArtist]

jake the blanket shields

[SatNamTree]

Jake didn't display anything that convinces me he's in the World top five Welters. He faced a 2nd tier fighter in Mayhem and he had some big troubles. Most important, his standup is too human.

[GfpWrestling]

Shields just fought with a safe gameplan. He knew taking down Miller would be easy and he just layed out the rounds. Everytime Miller tried to strike...guess what? Single leg to the ground, hit some strikes and try and secure a submission.

[doliveij]

I thought the exact same thing.

Why is Cung fighting a month after but vacating his belt?

[ShadowJ20]

Because Cung got a new movie deal.

[MysticNinjaJay]

The reason appears to be because one of his movie projects got delayed so he saw an oppurtunity to return to the cage. It sucks that this happened after he vacated the belt but I don't think it has anything to do with not wanting to fight Jake Shields. The question is how long will Cung stick with MMA after fighting Scott Smith in November? I'm a huge fan of Cung but I am tired of him abandoning MMA to pursue a movie career.

[MysticNinjaJay]

*December

[nick3425]

He barely won last night, I thought miller won.

[seancarletonzero]

I was cheering for Miller and he did do more damage but Shields controlled a good 60 to 70% of the fight and that was enough.

[frostyhkd]

Other than the near choke out Mayhem wasn;t close to winning man. I was cheering for Mayhem but lets be real jake was on top of him the whole fight like a blanket which gives him the win.
