Shields is stiff like a mofo. I bet if he went for a double leg he might get it. I mean Kos was able to get GSP down.

 

[Brinbe]

Nice...

 

[WrikaWrek]

Shields has as much stand up as i do.

 

[Kano on the Phone]

This looks like Wil Wheaton fighting a Roman statue.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

George "Jab" St-Pierre

 

[Basileus777]

Shit fight so far.

 

[TheKaeptain]

GSP is going to start opening up.

 

[criesofthepast]

GSP toying with him. Booooooring round.

 

[Kusagari]

Shields looks hopeless. One step closer to GSP vs Anderson.

 

[snack]

GSP!

 

[NomarTyme]

Shields looks hopeless. One step closer to GSP vs Anderson.

GSP is going to retire after this fight....

 

[dream]

GSP is going to start opening up.

Famous last words, spoken with the impending remorse of getting the cable bill.

 

[sooperkool]

Everybody in this weight class but GSP is deficient in some way. Its like playing Punch-Out for GSP.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Jake Lumpinee Shields.

 

[ShaneB]

Whoever wins, we lose.

Hope it's not 5 rounds of figuring each other out.

But I want my prediction to be right...

 

[AwesomeSauce]

Freaking Shields is frustrating. Go for the damn double leg or at least try for it. You won't be able to get him down by getting jabbed in the face all day.

 

[WrikaWrek]

Jesus christ, it's like some 20 year old videogame character.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Well looked like he was trying to continue with his kick after getting hit with the first jab.

 

[Zeliard]

Bah, they're both too passive and Shields is just terrible standing. Not very riveting stuff here.

 

[WrikaWrek]

Too much hype, shields ain't shit.

 

[dem]

gsp is just winging that right hand

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Hahaha has him hurt and doesnt go for the kill. He trollin you gaf.

 

[dream]

If any of you have ever played UFC Undisputed, this is pretty much exactly what happens in career mode when your CAF goes pro for the first time.

 

[charsace]

Shields should just shoot for a double and fight for a takedown.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

Too much hype, shields ain't shit.

He's a talented ground fighter. He is pissing me off right now that he isn't even thinking of taking down GSP. I'd say just go for it and if you get stuffed, regather breath and look for another opening to shoot.

 

[Buckethead]

What I expected >_>

 

[talk show host]

I feel embarassed for Shields at this point. Hopefully he gets GSP on the ground at least once.

 

[Zeliard]

He's a talented ground fighter. He is pissing me off right now that he isn't even thinking of taking down GSP. I'd say just go for it and if you get stuffed, regather breath and look for another opening to shoot.

Yeah Shields' gameplan here is just puzzling.

Exactly what the fuck does he think he's doing? Does he think he'll win the fight by getting smacked by GSP's jabs?

 

[dream]

He's a talented ground fighter. He is pissing me off right now that he isn't even thinking of taking down GSP. I'd say just go for it and if you get stuffed, regather breath and look for another opening to shoot.

He could at least shoot and pull guard off of a sprawl.

I can't stand the takedown defence stick-rotations. Great game in some respects.

 

[Kusagari]

This is why I hate GSP. He could end this anytime he wants if he would try.

 

[Mobius 1]

Yay, how exciting.

 

[WrikaWrek]

I don't understand.

What am i seeing???

 

[Master Thespian]

I'll cheer for GSP since everyone wants him to loose in here

I don't want him to lose at all. I want him to put away a guy who doesn't belong in the cage with him.

 

[Godslay]

Do they bring that howler chick in for every championship fight?

 

[dream]

Right about now, Shields is wishing he ate meat. Fucking weakling.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

He could at least shoot and pull guard off of a sprawl.

Seriously either way. It seems his gameplan is to catch a leg kick and try to trip GSP down.

 

[m3k]

Jesus christ, it's like some 20 year old videogame character.

exactly what i was thinking... those kicks lol

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Damn this is boring.

 

[Instro]

Only reason its boring is because Shields sucks so much. GSP is too good.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Like watching a sparring match.

zzzz

 

[Basileus777]

Can one of these guys stop being so conservative?

 

[Brinbe]

WTF is Shields doing

 

[Zeliard]

What was it Shields asked before his trainer said "no not yet" then something about the clinch? It wasn't about takedowns was it?

 

[TheKaeptain]

I'm sure Jackson said knock him out while he was picking up the seat.

 

[charsace]

Shields need to shoot a double.

I doubt GSP wins by tko because Shields is hard to beat.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

I'm guessing they want to wear GSP down? GSP will be all slippery with sweat and Shields will just slip off him.

 

[iamvin22]

Another angle

 

[Zeliard]

Joe answered it, it was about pulling guard.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

After the decision is announced, I hope Anderson goes inside the cage and tells GSP that he is not impressed by his performance.
