Jake Shields: Mayhem won’t sign

Your next fight will be against Jake Shields in Strikeforce. Have they told you exactly when and where that will be?

No man, I don’t know if it’s gonna happen, where it’s gonna happen, or when it’s gonna happen. Honestly, I know nothing. They keep me in the dark. I may be a bonafide TV star, but that doesn’t really have any pull in the knowing-when-you’re-gonna-fight business. The only thing they told me is that it would be for an interim belt.

Jake’s a really talented dude. By my calculations, he’s one of the ten best fighters in the world right now. How do you plan on dealing with him?

Dude, I will beat the piss out of Jake Shields, and he knows it. If everyone thinks I’m gonna lose, that’s fine. I’ll prove them wrong when we get in the cage against each other. I do everything better than him, and I’m bigger than him and stronger than him! I don’t understand, people think that because he stomped out some 170-pounders and caught Robbie Lawler in a damn guillotine, that all of a sudden he’s the second coming of Christ. Well guess what, dude? I’m gonna smash him. When I fight him, I’ll smash him.

Jake Shields Responds to ‘Mayhem’ Miller

He’ll beat the piss out of me..? He’s the one that won’t sign the contract. I would sign that fight tonight but he just wants to talk and act tough, but he’s the one that won’t sign. His manager tells us the fight is on, Miller has agreed and then I’m hearing he’s decided he can’t fight in October but would maybe do it in December.

He thinks he’s a star now but just like the show I was the only one doing the fighting while he just did the talking. He must think he’s Cung Le now.
