I'm predicting that Jake Shields wins this fight and I'm rooting for him.  I do like Hector Lombard, too, but I resent how the UFC makes matches.

If Lombard comes out even close to the way he came out against Marquardt, Shields is screwed.

Everyone you like is white and almost everyone you hate is of either black, Brazilian, or Hispanic. I can't help but shake my head and laugh at the same time lol.

Ultra bump.

I'm flip flopping on this one pretty bad, got it as shields decision because every time I (and seemingly most people) seem to think he's gonna get smashed he still manages to pull the win out of his ass.

Every time I pick Shields to lose he ends up winning (GSP fight excluded). I don't care for his fighting style all that much and I would love if Hector knocked him out but im not sure if he will. Jake beat a power striker in Hendo by taking him down and cintroling him. Still unsure of how I see the fight ending.

Unless you're the greatest fighter of all time... Tim Boetsch.

The reason Lombard changed weight classes is because he was undersized against guys like Boetsch, and even so that decision was dubious

I hope Lombard and Woodly win so we can see Shields fight Condit again. because if Shields beat CC once more, the butt hurt would be astronomical.

Probably the two most over rated guys in this division so this fight is kinda tough to call. Shields presents no problems other than laying on Lombard for 15 minutes. I think Lombard should be able to stop most the takedowns and possibly get a finish on the feet, but you never know.

Also I hope Shields loses so the UFC can make Marquardt vs Shields happen. I think Jake would be a fairly easy win for Marquardt, and I'd like to see him get a W.
