A welterweight bout between Demian Maia (18-4 MMA, 12-4 UFC) and Jake Shields (28-6-1 MMA, 3-2 UFC) will be part of an upcoming fall UFC show. Although an exact date hasn’t been determined, verbal agreements are in place, according to FUEL TV’s “UFC Tonight.” The recently rumored bout features two 170-pound grapplers coming off recent victories. Since a move down to welterweight, former middleweight title challenger Maia has won three consecutive bouts. The Brazilian, who made the drop after a decision loss to now-champ Chris Weidman in early 2012, has defeated Dong Hyun Kim (TKO via injury), Rick Story (submission) and Jon Fitch (decision). Maia was expected to fight Josh Koscheck this weekend at UFC 163 but was forced off the card when his opponent suffered an injury

After knockout win at UFC 162, Mike Pierce targets Jake Shields

BAD MMA News — Thu, 11 Jul 2013 01:40:00 +0000

UFC welterweight Mike Pierce said he drew motivation from a meeting at UFC 162 where fighters were told competitors they should wow fans if they wanted to be paid and placed better in the promotion. “I went out there and tried to do just that,” Pierce (17-5 MMA, 9-3 UFC) told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). Although the first round of his fight appeared to be a copy of earlier fights in which he smothered his way to a victory, the 32-year-old Portland, Ore., native and wrestling standout got space in the second and flattened David Mitchell (12-3 MMA, 1-3 UFC) with a punch combination. “I feel so much better on the feet, hitting guys and ending the fight early,” said Pierce, who believes those skills could come in handy if he gets the opponent he wants for his next bout – Jake Shields , who recently outpointed Tyron Woodley at UFC 161. “Man, that guy, he’s tough,” Pierce said of the former Strikeforce middleweight champ and current UFC welterweight
