Jake Shields impressive in defending title against Henderson

I have to give Jake Shields a lot of credit in his recent title defense over Dan Henderson. Shields had an excellent single-leg, mounted Henderson off all takedown attempts and was able to thwart and win a clear cut decision over one of the greatest fighters of all-time. I didn't give Shields much of a shot to win the battle, and the Californian proved myself among many other naysayers wrong in his triumphant win in the cage in Nashville.
