“I would like to formally apologize to CBS, Strikeforce, and all fans of mixed martial arts for my role in the events following the Strikeforce: Nashville event. In retrospect, my timing could not have been worse to ask for my rematch with Jake Shields, and I take full responsibility for entering the cage and setting off a chain of events that cast a dark shadow on the sport. I’ve been a fighter and a fan of MMA for over 12 years, and would never do anything to intentionally tarnish the sport I’ve given my life to. In the excitement of the moment I let my emotions run high and made a bad choice that resulted in a debacle, for that, I sincerely apologize.”

Jason “Mayhem” Miller publicly apologized for entering the cage and demanding a rematch against Jake Shields during the Shields’s post-fight interview at last Saturday’s CBS telecast of “Saturday Night Fights” from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. Team Gracie was not impressed by the childish act of “Mayhem” and decided to teach him a lesson in respect. Jason Miller was swarmed and beat down live on national TV.
