“It’s really hard to predict where this fight’s going to be,” Jake
Shields, Strikeforce middleweight champion, says of
his meeting Saturday with top-tier import Dan Henderson at “Strikeforce: Nashville.”
To most observers, the match-up is grappler vs. grappler at heart:
Henderson’s wrestling against Shields’ jiu-jitsu wizardry. The great
equalizer is Henderson’s powerful right hand.
“I know Henderson’s got good power but I’m not the easiest guy to hit,”
Shields counters.
