Jake Shields is an esteemed MMA fighter and grappler. The ADCC, UFC veteran had a nasty surprise yesterday.
Shields was last seen helping Georges St. Pierre prep for the Bisping match.
He recently talked in-depth about the match-up from an insider perspective and gave his prediction for the fight.
“[Georges St-Pierre]’s a martial artist, so he’s always trying to grow. He didn’t take four years to just party, film movies and cruise around, he was still training pretty much every day, he was coming to New York, you know, I think he was going out and working boxing as well – actually, I know he had a guy from Toronto who was a boxer, Jorge, was working with him as well. So, he was constantly learning and expanding new skills, so definitely. Plus, he’s bigger now, he’s probably put on 10 pounds of muscle. He’s still going to be smaller than Bisping, but he has that extra weight which should help.”
Shields will be next grappling Durinho over at Submission Underground on December 3rd.
