To All Fight Club Members,
You are absolutely the first to receive this official news!! Just wanted to let everyone know that I am going to be Chuck Liddell's Assistant Coach on the upcoming season of the Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV. Chuck asked me a couple weeks ago and I'm always willing to help him out. Chuck was the one who originally got me into MMA in the first place. I owe him a lot but besides that I'm excited to be part of TUF and hopefully I'm able to help Chucks team get the finals. I'm leaving San Francisco tomorrow morning and I'm headed to Vegas for 6 weeks to shoot the show as well as train just in case Strikeforce finalizes my next fight. Thanks again for all the support to everyone.

So confirms the TUF rumours. Also tells us that the Hendo fight hasn't been finalized. And that Chuck Liddell got Shields into MMA to begin.
Thought it was worth posting.
