George St. Pierre vs Jake Shields= Not exciting?

GSP just got off his one sided jabfest of Koscheck's right eye. He shut him down so easily, that Koscheck couldn't even see or even react to GSP's jab. That one sided domination, brings an argument for St. Pierre for cleaning out everyone in that division. The only relevant person for him to fight is Jake Shields. After that, its a clean sweep. Personally, that fight could potentially be the most boring fight in MMA history. It would be a takedown marathon I would think for Jake Shields, maybe that might be St. Pierre's weakness, fighting someone who can bore him to death more than he bores other people to death.

I'm not trying to diss them, they are amazing fighters but they give very lackluster performances. GSP doesn't take any risk and makes sure he gets the win and doesn't take the risk to go all in and finish the fight. He used to finish fights when he was younger, but he'd rather take the safe approach and win. Which doesn't always translate into an exciting fight for the fans.

Jake Shields, don't get me wrong hes a good fighter but, I never seen him in an exciting fight. He comes to wrestle and grapple. He puts the fight into his greatest strength which is a smart game plan. But he also does the lay and pray technique at times. Which many people labeled him to a boring fighter. The most exciting moment I've ever seen him in a fight is when Hendo almost knocked him out. That was the best.

Do you guys think this will be an exciting fight?
