It's about time, he's looked terrible half the time as a welterweight lately.

wouldnt say that. He had a huge win streak at WW and only needed a win to get a shot at the belt and headline the largest attended UFC event to date. It was a worthy move.

Hendo should never be cutting to 185 at his age.

Yes, but unlike WW there is alot less elite wrestlers at 185. It's not crazy to think that he would grind guys like Boetch, Stann, and hell even Vitor.

Jake is ducking him. He's fine at MW in SF but comes to the UFC (where Maia is) and drops. As soon as Maia moves down, he moves up. HE'S DUCKING HIM I TELL YOU!

Exactly. I'm glad I'm not the only one that is seeing this.

Didn't Dana say he wanted Jake at Welterweight in the first place?

Yeah but he already had his hyped up fight between him and GSP. Then Ellenberger ended any rematch hopes. So not much more the UFC can do with Jake at WW.

Yeah because he's going to be small at 185.

Jake Shields back to MW 025_Akiyama_and_Shields_gallery_post_large

His frame looks to be the same size as Sexyama if not smaller. I don't remember him as the bigger fighter versus GSP either. I think a run in with someone like Stann or Franklin (bigger MWs) and he's in a world of trouble.
