I know Serra and Penn dont have near the size of shields but Bjj didnt become what it was because of size... neither of theese guys bjj was even a factor while fighting GSP and both have ridiculous bjj and better hands then shields.

...God, I just backed Jake Shields. Wtf...
He's going to get killed by GSP. ...that's better.

Neither of these opponents have the size or actual GRAPPLING skill Shields has. He mixes BJJ and wrestling in a way that makes him incredibly dangerous to anyone at WW or MW.
I would further contend that, while Penn's pure boxing is much better than Shields', neither Serra nor Penn have better Muay Thai.

Few things I will repeat from what I said months ago.
1) Shields is a huge threat to GSP
2) A year ago most people on here were saying Hendo was a better wrestler then GSP
3) GSP will fight Shields pretty much exactly like he did vs Hughes in their 2nd fight

You want to do 2 weeks or a month?
I'll want a picture of a beat up Shields post GSP for your future sig.

Guess you will have a few months to be in control of your own sig until I get to pick one out for you.  | |
