At UFC 129: St. Pierre vs. Shields the second round of Georges St. Pierre vs. Jake Shields was as slow as the first but still dominant for the champion. Shields attempted two takedowns, but could get nothing. GSP appeared to be hunting for the overhand right that's been short just a few times.
ROUND 3 - Shields coming out more aggressive but still hitting nothing but air. GSP doing an excellent job of dodging anything Shields throws, but has yet to turn his offense into high gear. Shields gets nailed with a punch and shoots. It's immediately stuffed by GSP. Shields' striking is whiffing badly. And again the overhand right for St. Pierre misses. Shields shoots again with not set up from strikes and St. Pierre just moves out of the way. GSP goes back to the overhand right and can't hit anything significant. Right hand and caught kick for St. Pierre works. Huge takedown off of a caught kick for GSP.
SBNation.com scores this round 10-9 GSP.
