GSP & Shields: I will be champion after UFC 129

Meanwhile, Jake Shields has every plan to be the new UFC champion at 170.

“To become the UFC welterweight champion would mean everything to me. This is what I’ve spent my last 11 years pursuing with all my energy.”

“I’ve been in these other shows and heard everyone say GSP is the greatest. When I was over in EliteXC beating everyone else, when I was in Strikeforce beating everyone else, at Rumble on the Rock and everyone kept on talking about GSP, I kept on winning and winning and beating good competition. I’ve been looking at this guy and wanting to fight him for years.”
