Thu, 02 Oct 2008 22:08:59 +0000 http://fiveouncesofpain.com/?p=7425#comment-51643 this fight is amazing.. i almost yelped when i heard about it.. but i started to realize.. it's not going to be as great as i thought.. after taking a minute or two to demolish Nick Thompson, i realized.. only the world's best is going to beat Shields [ i mean, i kind of knew that from previous fights.. but.. that solidified it ] And while Paul Daley is among the best in Muay Thai.. he's not among the best in the all-around game.. He was taken down by Sammy Morgan almost with ease the first time.. he had enough skill to get back to his feet in that one.. but Morgan is no Jake Shields.. I suggest he doesn't even work his takedown defense.. because the striker getting taken down by the grappler is inevitable in every case.. I just hope he got with a Gracie or something and started working on wild triangles and armbars.. Daley definitely has the tools to stop it on the feet.. he just has to stay on the feet.. and we all know Shields can stop it on the ground.. he just has to get it there.. This should be an exciting fight.. i'd like to see Daley pull out a win.. this fight is amazing..
