Jason "Mayhem" Miller and Jake Shields took to a rematch outside the cage and online through the social networking service Twitter late Sunday to rekindle their rivalry from their Nov. 7 Strikeforce middleweight title bout.
It all began when Miller posted, "Jake, the worst damage you did was give me staph, zit covered leg humper."
Shields, who captured the vacant belt by defeating Miller by unanimous decision after five rounds, responded an hour later with "You seem upset?," punctuating the taunt with a link to a photo of himself posing next to a bookshelf filled with championship belts.
"Hugged your way to all those? Let's do it again, I'll hold on after the bell this time," Miller wrote back.
Shields took a cheap shot next at Miller, who was arrested in December 2005 for allegedly breaking into his ex-girlfriend's home and attacking her male friend. Miller was later found not guilty on charges of assault and burglary.
"I'm on to bigger & better fights like always. I mean ur last real win was when you beat up your girlfriend and got arrested," said Shields.
Miller closed the exchange of jabs with "you're just scared of a rematch, just say it. Or your daddy will say it. B---h."
On a more positive note, Shields commented on Georges St-Pierre namedropping him over the weekend as a dream opponent.
"Just heard GSP listed me as his dream fight," Shields wrote. "HUGE honor 2 be able 2 challenge myself against 1 of the most dominant champs ever someday."

well then good shields. i think you'd be better off fighting for ufc. i personally would prefer to have a champ in strikeforce who can actually exhibit some use of the mixed martial arts to defeat opponents rather than laying on them until the final bell sounds off. i'm still wishing shields the best. no doubt mayhem had the sub, sometimes i envision a complex system to mma matches that includes overtime for sub attempts and limits to how long they can lay or clinch. that was definitely a finishing sub that was the only successful move applied throughout the fight. shields may have the belts, but not the respect. and the rnc is shields only finishing move. really mayhem beat him at his own game. i'm behind mayhem on this. ufc loves lay n prayers. they have a roster full of em. go there and challenge gsp. please.

Shields won the battle, the war, everything. Miller is just making himself look like more of a douche.

Shields is a boring fighter. Heck, I saw midgets on Springer that have better striking skills.
Like him or not, Miller brings excitement and puts asses in the seats.

yea i agree with Eric lol
I think Millers a wayyy more exciting fighter, Shields dry humped his way to a title. Only reason GSP said its a dream match is cuz he knows it'll be an easy TKO and there would be a bunch of people wanting to watch Shields get wh00pt, so that means more money for GSP. Miller is a martial artist, Shields has the same game plan my ex gfs gold lab had...take 'em down and hump em til someone shoves you off !!

Shields dodged a bullet when the 3rd round ended and we all know it. It's unfortunate Shields has to dig up history in an attempt to make Miller look bad, unfortunately it just made him look like the cry baby douche.

Jake Shields' is a funny guy.What a great sense of humor--sardonic and satiric humor in this case.I especially liked how he posted the photo of himself posing next to a bookshelf filled with championship belts.Miller must have felt very depressed and dejected after seeing that.Very humiliating and embarrassing for Miller,but he definitely deserved this smackdown.His ego and his opinion of himself are much,much too inflated.I don’t think too many people are feeling bad about having a good laugh at the expense of Jason’The asshole’Miller.

Did you see the fight? Shields may have left with the "W", but Miller left with the fans.
