[Eric Spicely]

Im sorry i personally dislike jake shields not taking away from his ability he is an amazing fighter.with that said i hope kampmann destroys him

[Eddie Bravo]

Weird how he's so good at jiu jitsu, prolly top 5 in MMA, yet he's only trained in the gi less than 8 hours

Hmm, there's something to that. Are you telling me that training without a Gi is better than with it for MMA?!?!

[DENNY PROKOPOS]

denny looks to be sparring with him at 4:32

Yes that is me getting an ass beating throughout the video. That was an awesome day of Sparing. Jake is a beast he has amazing Jiu Jitsu.

I have had a lot of conversations with Jake about American Jiu Jitsu his philosophy runs parallel with What Eddie says and the 10th Planet Philosophy.
Parts of his philosophy is
1. He is all about training No gi for Jiu Jitsu and MMA.
2. He believes in attacking first because that's what wins.
3. Some of his techniques are wrestling based.
4. He believes in crushing and squeezing.
5. His whole style is based on under hooks, over hooks, and clinching.
6. The focus on technical progression in order to keep evolving to a better you.
7. If need be pull guard in a fight, but always look for the takedown.

The gi community cannot explain the Jake Shields phenomena, it's a mystery to them

[Chris Herzog]

Looking forward to his fights in the UFC. Anyone know his first opponent?

[NelsonLucca]

Zog, he has Kampmann first then supposedly GSP if he wins

[Brent Smith]

I think he'll get through Kampmann relatively easy. Should be a good fight with GSP

Damn thats right I remember hearing that. Should be a decent fight.
