Jake Shields, Jason Miller Vow to Hype Their Strikeforce CBS Fight
by Michael David Smith Filed under: MMA Media Watch , Strikeforce When mixed martial arts returns to network television on November 7, the undisputed star of the show will be Fedor Emelianenko , the sport’s heavyweight champion. But Fedor doesn’t speak English and isn’t well known in the United States, and that means promoting the CBS show will fall in large part on other fighters on the card. Jake Shields and Jason “Mayhem” Miller , who will meet for the Strikeforce middleweight title, say they embrace that opportunity. “Strikeforce is the right promoter to bring MMA to the mainstream,” said Shields, who fought twice on CBS last year under the EliteXC banner. “It’s really important to us to make this successful. I want to do my part to promote this.” Jake Shields, Jason Miller Vow to Hype Their Strikeforce CBS Fight originally appeared on MMA FanHouse on Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:45:00 EST .
