Jake Shields: I would like to be the number one contender by the end of 2012

It wasn't that long ago that Jake Shields had won 15 consecutive fights over some pretty big names, putting himself in position to be considered one of the world's best 170-pounders.
Fast-forward to late 2011 and he's now coming off back-to-back losses for the first time in his career.
After falling to the Canadian jab of death against Georges St. Pierre at UFC 129 last April, the former Strikeforce middleweight champion was stiffened by Jake Ellenberger at UFC Fight Night 25, just days after the passing of his father back on Sept. 17.
In short, it's been a pretty shitty year for the American Jiu-Jitsu grappler.
That's why his first bout of 2012, a welterweight scrap against Yoshihiro Akiyama at UFC 144 on Feb. 26 in Japan, is such an important first step in re-establishing himself as a dominant force in the promotion's crowded 170-pound division.
"I'm feeling great about my opponent. [Akiyama] is someone that I should match up good against. I just wanna have a great year. 2011 wasn't my best year and I just wanna get back on track and get a couple of big wins to get myself lined back up for another title shot. I would like to be the number one contender by the end of 2012. Right now I wanna see Nick [Diaz} go out there and take that belt and then I'll worry about what I'm gonna do from there."
Hear more from Shields, courtesy of Fighting Famous TV, after the jump.
Anyone think Shields gets back "in the mix?" Or is he going to be relegated to the role of division gatekeeper for the foreseeable future?

I like ya jake but most of the UFC ww fighters have your number now
Don’t feel good about your fight with gsp , he doesn’t fight anyone let alone finish them , when you think about contender status think about ellenberger , think about condit and kos and nick . Have fun and good luck

Yes he will
There’s nobody at 170 who can stop him either, other than GSP, Condit, Diaz or possibly Fitch. Ellenberger he’s fought. He probably wins that rematch.
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
That's funny
You just named 5 fighters he either cannot beat or has already been beaten by. No way in hell he wins a rematch against Ellenberger, just stop it.
No way in hell...
Where do you get that from? Your 1 minute expertise on the subject?
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
It's not hard to figure out unambig
If you can’t see Ellenberger is by far the better fighter, then i suggest you watch a little more of his fights. I don’t think i’m in the minority here, i’m pretty sure most would agree.
yeah well most bozos around here picked Meathead over Kongo too
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
That was a winnable fight for Meathead all he had to do was get a little more aggressive

No offence to ya'll, since a bunch of you scored higher than I did in the pool
But several times I scratched my head when 90% of you picked the clearly inferior guy and swore up and down he was 120% certain to win.
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
Honestly
I still think he has the stand up to beat Kongo, I wasn’t expecting him to just stand in front of him to be taken down, I also underestimated Kongo’s top control.
Jon Jones opponent's don't gas, he just beats the will out of them.

Meathead should go train with Rampage
and just work on TDD. if he can improve marginally there, then he can win consistently. He is never going to be a top guy, he is too old, and started to late, but he can certainly win more than he will lose, and remain exciting.

Great point
and Rampage does have really good TDD, but i think he’d be better served training with CAIN / Cormier in that department, or Brock, seeing as he’s a HW, they would be able to challenge him a bit more
Not sure which "bozos" you are referring to
I personally said that Kongo is by far the more experienced, and has legit kick boxing and would present all sorts of problems for Meathead that he had not encountered before. That and his wrestling is better then Meathead too. Although i like Meathead and think he is a solid prospect, i doubt he’ll ever reach the top 5
Haha how can you say he "probably wins that rematch"?
He got his ass handed to him in like 30 seconds…
and you named 4 other people that can stop him.. and those are all the top of the division.
JakeS could possibly be a gatekeeper at best

Right. Because every person who has lost in 1 minute has gone on to lose every fight they ever fought thereafter.
GSP has been knocked out in the first round 10 consecutive times now.
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
Well that just makes no sense at all
I never said he would lose every fight after that… you are making stuff up because your argument is ridiculous.
If he fights JakE again.. I, personally, expect the same result.
I was arguing with you saying that he would probably win a rematch with JakE….

Ellenberger has proven nothing more than he hit him with a lucky punch
based on your bullshit reasoning, Serra would have knocked out GSP in the rematch
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
There were a lot of people that called it for Ellenberger, it had nothing to do with luck
I heard radio show hosts and other fighters picking Ellenberger not just the fans.

nothing that would indicate Ellenberger would do the same thing every time. In fact, history shows Shields’ chin would stand up 99% of the time. Everybody has an off-day, buddy.

Haha you are seriously getting worked up over this

That’s how this shit works
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
That’s how this shit works
that only works if the guys he is fighting move up in ranking incrementally. Besides the belt in that division is tied up for the next 18 months. What he can do, is beat 3 guys, then wait for Anderson to retire, an move up to MW, which is where he should be fighting anyway

Nah, Jake will go on a tear again
He defeats most of the top WWs. I’d say Jake Shields is probably ranked 4 or 5.

He got unconvincingly decisioned by GSP and then knocked out by fluke
He’ll be back, and you’ll be accepting my greatness as a prognosticator.
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
How was it a fluke?
And how was it unconvincingly? GSP dropped him several times.. GSP won for sure and JakE beat his ass…
That makes no sense… this is one of those times where a poster is blinded by their love for a fighter
Shields is overrated and will be out of the UFC in the coming year

GSP did the bare minimum to win, and quite frankly embarrased himself and all his fallating Canadian fans
As for Ellenberger, his fucking dad just died. Do you have a dad?
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place
Yea I do have a dad...
But if that was hindering JakeS, then he should have fought. If they fought again.. I would pick JakE without a doubt. He is a much much better fighter than JakeS.
GSP didnt go all out but the fight was in the bag the whole time…

In no way was Shield getting KTFO by Ellenber a fluke, i called that shit before the fight, and it happened. The guy recently lost his Dad and his head is elsewhere, not to mention his striking is some of the worst I have ever seen in any combat sport.
He has to improve his stand up - otherwise I agree with you.

I believe in ring / cage rust
I hate making excuses for fighters, but I truly feel this was his issue that night. I mean, he hasn’t had a fight in how long before then?
I don't think it's an excuse, it was a long lay off
And if you look at his last fight before that he went 5 rds with Jake Shields and nearly submitted him at one point. Now one fight after and he’s gassed in rd 2? Yea something was wrong.

Did you not see Miller almost choke shields out?
He had him dead to rights with a RNC if i recall and Shields was saved by the bell, had it been 3-5 seconds longer, he would have tapped or ZZZZZzzzzzzz. Give Miller a pass on his last fight with Bisping, he’ll never look that bad again, i know he’s better then that. Anybody who has watched his fights over the years knows the same thing.
I fully agree
People hate on him for his antics… but oh well. People do that same thing with every fighter. I admit that I do the same thing too.. but I also try to look at fighters with an open mind and try not to be judgmental just because I dont like them.
Miller had the worst showing of his life.. but he will rebound from that.
I feel that we will see Sexy get a KO against Shields and then Shields will be kicked out after his next loss

I use to not like Mahem, mostly because of his stupid entrance and antics like you said, but after i got past all that, i realized he is actually a talented fighter and has a lot to offer, and now his antics aren’t so annoying to me, and I just laugh it off because the guy is just having fun doing what he loves to do. I don’t know if Sexy will KO shields, but Ellenberger probably cracked that chin a little for him, so it’s definitely possible.
Sexy is powerful and Shields gets dropped pretty often

I was never a fan of his (nor do i hate him, i'm neutral)
He doesn’t deserve the hype IMO, but to each there own. For the record, I also believe he lost that fight to Kamp, so to me he hasn’t done shit in the UFC but lose
it was close enough to where I didn't really bitch about the decision
But I also felt that Kampmann got the better of him.

I think former fighters should consider this if they are looking to stay involved in the sport somehow after they are done, or at least get guys who are on the amateur level involved, anybody who has been the cage themselves could have a better understanding and perspective then someone who has not IMO.

Great sig.
"To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man." - William Shakespeare (Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 3)
How does 2 weeks sound?
And then when the time comes, after the fight, we can decide what the sigs will be. I will double the length of time by betting you on the condit/diaz fight.

Honestly, until you inform yourself on this bill, there is ZERO point in debating it.

Don’t be confused by anyone claiming that the indefinite detention legislation does not apply to American citizens. It does. There is an exemption for American citizens from the mandatory detention requirement (section 1032 of the bill), but no exemption for American citizens from the authorization to use the military to indefinitely detain people without charge or trial (section 1031 of the bill). So, the result is that, under the bill, the military has the power to indefinitely imprison American citizens, but it does not have to use its power unless ordered to do so.
But you don’t have to believe us. Instead, read what one of the bill’s sponsors, Sen. Lindsey Graham said about it on the Senate floor: "1031, the statement of authority to detain, does apply to American citizens and it designates the world as the battlefield, including the homeland."

Sig bets with enzo-enormous:
Diaz beats Condit on Feb. 4, 2 weeks
Shields beats Akiyama on Feb. 26, 2 weeks
Mania Money Pool Season 5: Sixth Place

That’s what they are selling it as. Now, somebody growing a few plants for medicinal reasons could be labelled a “terrorist” and be in for a complete shitstorm. Come on man, they just legalized locking people up without cause or trial.

Shields is the guy to beat Silva, stylistically
He is very Sonnen-Henderson-esque. The only difference is that Jake isn’t gonna get fucking choked out or subbed in any way. Great wrestling. Great BJJ. I too used to criticize his striking, but he did well in the GSP fight.
What (almost) beat Silva is the constant pressure. Never letting Anderson have is usual round 1 of readng his opponent. That's not Shield, IMO.

If Sexy runs out of gas he will lose he he does not he won't Jake cannot outstrike him and he won't get him down(no one at 170 will get Sexy down unless he gets tired)
If you dont like drugs then dont do them.....give them to me!

Jake is too much of a specialist
and although he’s a great guy on the ground, he’s not well rounded. His standup is seriously lacking. He needs to commit to a big change in his training to develop some striking or he will never rise to the top. With that said, he’s still a tough dude and will win more than he loses but the top guys are more dynamic.
