You can always count on "Mayhem" Miller to provide a healthy amount of flair with his entrances, but at last night’s Strikeforce event there was a little miscommunication that almost caused him to get backfisted in the face by one of his own dancers. Things went more smoothly in the rehearsal, as you can see, but, like James Hetfield once learned the hard way, things get real in a hurry when the pyrotechnics start popping off. Miller was obviously disappointed with the fight, and though he came within a few seconds of submitting Jake Shields he apologized to his fans on Twitter, saying he "didn’t train hard enough, wasn’t prepared to grapple that much."
Dammit Mayhem, you got nothing to be sorry for. You fought hard against a tough opponent. It’s just too bad you didn’t get to show off your chosen discipline of "slap boxing" a little more. Those of you who still haven’t seen the fight can check it out here.

commentsFuck Derren Brown - this guy can do it on reruns and recorded versions too.
Wrestlers really are the armpit of this sport - develop some real Ju Jitsu or some striking you 1 dimensional tarts.
TrouserSnout, you should be more respectful to people with first comments, you little prick.
it's good that mayhem doesn't take himself too seriously and is willing to have some fun on the job
This is why I hate the lay-and-pray fighters like Jake. He caused absolutely NO damage to Mayhem while on top, and Mayhem reversed EVERY submission attempt and the majority of position advances.
Mayhem looked like the better fighter to me, and it seems as though the crowd agrees. If Mayhem has better wrestling, that fight would have ended differently.
Oh, for another 10 seconds in round 3. Could have been a good night for the ADD poster child. Bad luck Mayhem.
