@Sal1the1great All true, Jake has excellent stand-up technique, lands grisp jabs and great body and leg kicks. Lawler said about his kicks post fight "no single kick felt like it was going to put me down, but if he kept landing them they would have added up"
No one punch KO power, but he uses his technical striking to set up TD's, occasional standing choke, & he does enuff damage 2 keep guys honest. He's a wizard on the ground, and has a little magic taking the fight there.

@JonnyRingo84 COMPARABLE GRAPPLING?
I know hindsight is 20/20 but even back then I would have told you this was nuts.
... Unless the comparison in their grappling that you want to make is that Shield's grappling is 100X better.
I had still picked hendo to win-do, though. Didn't know shields was that resilient and thought hendo's TDD was a bit better.

jake shields ground beautiful
stand up technique
excellent
power in hands... my sister has more

there are many guys outside of the ufc who would be successful in the organization. jake would be one of them. however, he wouldnt challenge for a title anytime soon. his standup is garbage. youll see what i mean when he fights hendo, a fighter with far superior striking and comprable grappling.
-
He has been fighting top middleweights, Ruthless Robbie, Mayhem and now Hendo.
I read that he wants to fight at his natural weight but that Strikeforce has all these top 5 and 10 middleweights and they are just in a building
-
shiedls striking isnt that great?? rly his muay thai is exceptional and koscheck is nothing special in my opinion he really isnt that good and fitch has decent standup but nothing else impresses me... and as far as tiago he is just about all ground and pound with boxing.... he's a submission away from being found out... and gsp greased his last fight i just think his reign is a big fight away from being over... plus jake shields bjj is top notch i mena he beat vinny for god sake
-
for sure. he's a cool guy too so I hope the best for him.
-
yea i saw him beating lawlor but still the better opportuity ahs gotta be with the ufc he could make an easy title opportunity run and i think could defeat gsp if given the chance... he's a star just waiting to break out i can feel it
Shields dominates a 3 time Heavyweight BJJ and Absolute Champion. Jake 170lbs, Vinnie 210lbs. Impressive.

Shields just runs over Vinnie and leaves him lying in the road.
