    I said on chat box when it happened,that the only meaningful strike Shields had landed up to that point was that eye poke.

    Except for the fact that it wasn't that strike that did the damage, so you were doubly wrong. It was a straight right, his knuckle hit him in the eye.

    We all saw the replay of the jab they found of what they thought caused the damage.

    I don't know for sure if this shot was before or after the jab that they showed,but there is no denying that the video shows Shields fingers raking across GSP's eye.

    raking being the key word. and raking from the right side to the left. GSP had closed his eyes by the time the fingers got close to his left eye. The jab they showed, the knuckle went into his eye socket.

    GSP didnt react to it at all though? If someone pokes you, you stop and complain or cover your eye or blick or something?
