Perfect Display of patience, technique and discipline by the dragon. Waited for his oppurtunities and took advantage, and destroyed Rashad. Im sick of all these assholes wanting to see nothing but blood, and brawling, in my opinion its not worth getting knocked out just to entertain ignorant people…

welcome to the Machida Era Bitches!!!

In a recent interview, Anderson said he wouldn´t fight Lyoto as they are training partners and very good friends, is that so? or Is Anderson just too scared to get hiss kicked???

BRANDON VERA WILL GET EMBARASSED. HES PRETTY GOOD BUT NO WHERE IN MACHIDAS LEVEL.I HONESTLY FEEL BAD FOR WHOEVER HIS NEXT OPPONENT IS. I THINK THE BEST FIGHT THAT UFC CAN MAKE RIGHT NOW IS ANDERSON SILVA VS LYOTO MACHIDA IF ANDERSON CAN TAKE OUT GRIFFIN, MACHIDA VS SILVA WOULD BE A DREAM FIGHT.NOW THATS A FIGHT I WOULDNT WANNA BET ON.

Acho que outros lutadores do MMA tem mais pegada que o Machida, mas isso não é tudo, como já está provado, e o grande desafio que está posto para estes grandes pegadores será conseguir acertar o Machida, porquê além de ter uma postura defensiva muito cautelosa e vai levando os oponentes mais agressivos à exaustão. É na verdade um grande estrategista, com uma técnica mista muito apurada de Karatê, Box, Muay Thay, Jiu Jitsu e até mesmo Sumô e Judô. Se encontrar um pegador com a mesma técnica que ele, acho que cai, mas ser´pa muito difícil combinar tantas habilidades em um mesmo lutador!!!!

Although i’m a Evans fan since the first time I saw him on the ultimate fighter, this win was amazing. Like everyone else is saying here…evans didn’t even touch the guy. A true champion, and a UFC-hall of famer in the making, no doubt.
Last little comment: I know that a lot of people feel that Evans is a Showboater(don’t know how it’s spelled) i personaly think that it’s just his style… I think he does it to confuse his opponents. But i respect the oppinion of others! I was getting pissed too during the Griffin fight, but evans is still a true Ultimate Fighter…Ask Chuck Liddell

Im glad Machida entered MMA and is dominating, hopefully this will enlighten all the know it all MA newbies. I wouldnt call his style unorthadox either, because it is a style. I would consider unorthadox more like a street fighter throwing rainbow punches which had not been practiced,yet karate punches are not what MMA is used to so from that point of view I guess we could call it not the norm.

Hey…maybe if someone taught Bruce “Space Invader” Bowen how to fight, he could catch Machida…nobody gets away from that guy. LOL

By: charles

charles — Sun, 31 May 2009 01:22:25 +0000

and hey mont there’s nothing wrong with celebrating victory but there’s a huge difference between gamesmanship and arrogance talking smack in the ring during the fight and taunting it is UNSPORTSMANLIKE big difference there son has nil to do with white and black it’s called CLASS the only problem I have with it is it makes a fighter look like a punk-ass biotch when he runs his trap and then gets KTFO humiliating embarrassing come-uppance who wants to set themselves up for that so doing it just makes a fighter look like a chump on national TV like that idiot from this season of TUF little punk ran his trap peacocking all over the place and got his ass sent home happens every time so it’s better to just keep it quiet and prove your point with action not words if you’re the greatest prove it with your skills and keep the flapper zipped and leave the schoolyard antics at home that’s what I say and now for the third time it’s even annoying to write this way…so I think I’ll stop.

By: charles

charles — Sun, 31 May 2009 01:06:36 +0000

and look at me even making my own mistakes I meant to write “onto” and “one” so no I’m not a hypocrite they were just typos not due to straight-up dumbass disease but I guess some just can’t help it anyway machida is very very good but people talk like he will never be beaten sorry folks not gonna happen he will lose eventually the growth curve in MMA is rapid and someone will figure him out and soon so don’t get your hopes up too high about years-long reigns it’s not likely to happen boy see how annoying it is to have to read this way

boy isn’t it great when people come on to these sites and ramble on in run-on sentences with no punctuation and bad grammar I really hate that and wouldn’t it be great if they could spell correctly too instead of making all kinds of ignorant statements that just make them look like jackasses and wouldn’t it be even better if sites like this had filters that would just automatically fix everything and then maybe all these armchair fighters wouldn’t need to go back to school and learn how to write correctly and hey I’m no expert but every fighter has his nemesis and machida and silva will eventually meet theirs the growth of the sport is too rapid now and there will always be someone out there that is better yes fedor silva and machida have skill sets that are better than those that came before them but they too will be surpassed it’s only a matter of time hey don’t you love reading a post that’s written this way ha it really works the brain to decipher where on sentence ends and the next begins wow I wonder what it would be like to talk to a person who talks the way they write if they write this way huh must be like talking to a robot

Machida may just be the luckiest fighter on the planet to get as far as he has with that bogus karate style. yea i”d like to see the spider wipe the floor with him, but give the real 1 contender his shot first,and watch rampage actually connect with big power that he has yet to feel. Memphis represent!

Rampage is gonna get raped and Shogun would spend 5 rounds trying to catch Machida. So its best all those bandwagon jumpers to get on Rampages while you still can cus seeing how Rashad got his face MASHED you won’t see Machida get scuffed by the stiff stance of rampage and even shogun to a degree.

@ Erik, dude what the hell are you on, who wants to see brawlers punching the air wishing for a knockout. Machida imo is like the most exciting to watch as you never know what he is going to do next as his style is unpredictable and his punches are just so damn accurate.

Rashad, you can sit the f#4k down now, Machida just pawned you.

By: Shawn

Shawn — Wed, 27 May 2009 00:09:07 +0000

I feel that Rashad is a stonger fighter but his gameplan was poor for this fight. He should have used his strength in wrestling to take this guy down. I’m upset that he went toe to toe with this stryker who specializes in crippling leg kicks. Sad day for the Spartan.

erik — Tue, 26 May 2009 23:42:05 +0000

machida makes me tired, i need a nap after his fights, he sits back and throws a few kicks and punches, whooohoo i just spent 50 bucks to see 11 strikes, my grandma is more entertaining

Ok well for the ppl here who are saying that there are gonna be a bunch of “Bandwagon” Machida fans. Of course there are. What is the reason for you becoming a fan in the first place? Because that person gives you a reason to. I Hate Rashad and having Machida KO him was the best outcome of the year so far. So i am now a Machida fan, but when he fights Rampage sometime this fall, I cant say ill be routing for him.

i feel ya there charlie. Ive been a fan of Machida since his UFC Debut. Now all these bandwagon fans are jumping on Machidas nutts. Now when it gives us actual Machida fans a bad rep. If Rashad had KOed him most of these people would of been on Rashads nutts. I hate Bandwagon fans.

Machida destroyed that cocky prick.I hope rashad gets KTFO against rampage so he can be hubmle for a change.Machida is a force,nobody will beat him tho rampage and shogun have a chance.

rampage has quite a chin and some good orthodox boxing of late. not sure how he’ll close the distance against lyoto, as he lost a slim decision to forestt largely because of those long kicking legs. this jones dude would be a cool match up too. fedor would kill lyoto if they ever fought as he’s smart enough to eventually get in close (and has amazing recovery time). once it gets in close the GnP with the weight and strength would be too much. i think lyoto would beat brock though

By: russiandoeboi

russiandoeboi — Tue, 26 May 2009 02:09:23 +0000

it’s exciting to see someone so good and so different.
interesting opponents would be forestt with exfellent reach and kicks.

and someone who would close the distance, and or someone that would catch a kick, and grab a leg. rogan is right about this style not telegraphing as much as other styles though. i think shogun could finish machida standing, clinching or on the mat, if he ever gets in shape again. the liddell fight didn’t last long enough for that. shogun forest should fight winner of rampage/machida?

machida dominated that fight no doubt however i think if rashad had the confidence to strike it could’ve been closer. Rashad never really got into the fight, Machida just overwhelmed him from the get go. machida for the fight he wanted to whereas Rashad was just falling for his trap. im not sure who can actually take machida in the future. i think machida will win against anderson S, jackson, shogun, forrest.

I am glad Machida beat Evans, especially via knock out. I think evans is a disrespectful fighter, showed a lack of sportsmanship against Griffin, and deserved to not just lose, but to be knocked out.

By: Torin

Torin — Sun, 24 May 2009 13:39:35 +0000

I’m so happy Lyoto won. I feel that Rashad could of done much better though. He seemed intimidated from the very beginning probably due to alot of predictions favoring Lyoto. I mean i knew Lyoto would win but he dominated the fight.

where have u mma fans been for 3-5 years machida has been dominating his opponents without being basically touched with a masterfull mix of the original martial art of karate mixed with wrestling and mui tai good luck joel silva and dana white finding a worthy opponent for lyoto his style of fighting is hard to prepare for his game, which is based on the samurai way of defensive counterstrikes while evading a razor sharp sword which could kill u with one strike thats why his defense is impeccable

By: admin

WOW! Really his striking is just deadly. He’s so fast and precise with his hands it’s ridiculous. A worthy champion no doubt.
