I should be speaking with top contender Jake Shields tonight, over the weekend, or early next week (whenever I can track him down). Post original questions in this thread (ie: not "How will you defeat GSP?") and I can draw on them for the conversation. Even if it's not a specific question you can think of, jot down some things you'd like to know more about Shields, stuff like that.

We saw during the Koscheck fight what GSP is able to do when someone denies him the takedown. Were you impressed with GSP's stand up? If so, how does it affect your gameplan for the fight, if at all?
