Former Strikeforce Middleweight Champ, Jake Shields, has officially signed with the UFC. Shields, who was released from his Strikeforce contract last month, will be debuting with the company back at his original weight class of welterweight. His first bout is to be announced, but it is expected that he will take on a top contender in the welterweight division & a win will set up a title fight between Shields & the winner of the George St. Pierre vs Josh Koshcheck match up. Strikeforce will hold a battle between Tim Kennedy & Ronaldo Souza in August for Shields vacated middleweight crown.
GSP and the rest of the welterweight division are now on notice. Jake Shields is the truth.
