Jake Shields was a coveted name in the MMA world even before he joined the UFC. The former fighter was a teammate of the noted UFC fighter, Nate Diaz. Shields got involved in the pre-fight altercation with Conor McGregor’s team while he was a part of Nate Diaz’s squad. He is also known to lots of others outside the MMA community as well due to his nonchalant presentation of his opinions on social media. Shields has been involved in notable feuds with Conor McGregor’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor, Dillon Danis, and the famed rapper, Cardi B.

Currently, Shields was also involved in an online feud with the Welterweight UFC fighter, Mike Jackson. Shields was triggered by Jackson calling him a “na*i” and a “white nationalist” on his Twitter. Things took a more violent turn when Shields crossed paths with Jackson at the UFC Performance Institute recently. The two reportedly got into a brief grappling tussle where Shields got the better of Jackson and also slapped him.

But Jackson continued to fire at Shields through his tweets despite the altercation at the UFC PI. But Shields was never the one who was going to stay quiet after Jackson’s provocation.
