Joe Rogan talks Jake Shields on the UG:

"I think what Shields' doing right now is awesome. He's training with Nick Diaz, and he spends time with the AKA guys sometimes as well. His jiu jitsu is as good as you'll see in MMA. He has very, very strong submissions. His stand up is looking better all the time as well. I would love to see him in the UFC, and I think we will eventually."

wait he’s training with nick? ..i didn’t know that.

I hope we do see him in the UFC.. While i don’t think he could beat GSP, i think he’d still do well against the middle to upper tier guys..

I’d like to see him against hazelett in his UFC debut.. who’s better on the ground?

For reals? Cesar Gracie has always been Jake, Nick, Gil, Terrell, and a few more guys.
