Shields returning to welterweight with sights set on Carlos Condit or Jake Ellenberge

UFC's Jake Shields returning to welterweight with sights set on Carlos Condit or Jake Ellenberger - MMAmania.com

Quote:

Former UFC title challenger Jake Shields is dropping back to the welterweight division after only one fight at middleweight and he wants big match ups right off the bat, specifically saying he would like to get his hands on former interim champ Carlos Condit or top-ranked contender Jake Ellenberger.

Shields explains to Bleacher Report:

"I'm hungry to fight right now, I've been training really hard. The problem is there's not a lot of opponents for me right now, but I want to fight. I'm kind of stuck waiting, but I'm hoping something pulls together quick."

"I'm always kind of stuck in the middle, it's either a big cut or I'm small at the weight, I was constantly trying to keep my weight up, I was eating all the time and lifting all the time. I never really got over 195 pounds and even then all the 170-pounders are bigger than that. Basically I got a new diet, a cleaner diet, I've got my weight back down into the high 180's."

"I made some changes, my weight came down, my cardio feels better, I feel a lot cleaner with more energy,"

Is he ever going to disclose what banned substance he was caught with in his system?

Both would KO him imo.

Hopefully he fights soon, I can then finally get a well deserved nap.

Doubtful but I'd be willing to bet it was painkillers or some type.

Yeah, I see the Ellenberger rematch ending the same way as the first fight...
