Shields is getting a bigger mouth. He's a good fighter but calling out the big guys from the minor leagues always makes you look somewhat bad when you don't have to back it up anytime soon.

Hughes looked bad in that fight because Lytle is good.

Anyone who thinks otherwise underestimates Chris Lytle.
You are entirely correct. Add to that the fact that Lytle's ground game plan was to do practially nothing but neutralize Hughes so the referee would stand them up. That didn't happen so we naturally didn't get much action.

Yea Shields, you keep talking....
Seriously this guy is a joke man, I seriously think he's hoping to build up some Fedor like aura.

I'm not a big fan of Shields, but he's no joke. He would beat Hughes right now and would be very hard for GSP to handle.

Shield's grappling is exceptionally good. He reminds me of Faber in that he often has to come back to win. But he is a very tough fighter, don't let anybody tell you different.

It must be nice to talk smack without having to back it up.

Jake is one of the better WW in the division; however, he should not be calling people out, particularly Matt Hughes.

right now Hughes is capable of beating any WW aside from GSP.

What do you expect him to say.

"No....in fact Matt Hughes would pick me up and throw me into the 5th row."???

If he ever came to the UFC he would be shellshocked by the size and strength of its WW fighters.
