Jake Shields är besviken på att Nevadas atletiska nämnd inte gav Rousimar Palhares något straff för hans ögonpetningar.
Jake Shields mötte Rousimar Palhares på WSoF 22 i Augusti. Matchen slutade kontroversiellt och Nevadas Atletiska Nämnd (NSAC) har straffat båda fighters för deras agerande efter matchen. Palhares höll i ett lås långt efter att Shields klappat ut och Shields svarade med att svinga mot Palhares.

Nu berättar Shields om att han är besviken och delar med sig av sin syn på NSACs agerande:
”I’m not big on long suspensions. But he’s a case where it’s so extreme that he needs something. Obviously the holding submissions has gone on multiple times. To me, the eye-gouging was even worse. He was trying to gouge my eyes out. That was absurd and obscene. It’s kind of ridiculous that [referee Steve] Mazzagatti never got anything.”
”Even the Nevada case, when they were hearing the case against him, they never mentioned the eye-gouging. It was only holding the submission too long. I think having to admit to eye-gouging would be admitting that the referee didn’t do anything. And they wanted me to come and testify against him. But I’m not going to come on there and be a part of it when they’re not even addressing the real issue.”
”I don’t know, I clearly don’t like the guy, and I guess he deserves to be suspended. I guess that’s about right. I’m not a huge fan of commissions taking charge of that. But it’s probably something he deserves.”
