Can't wait for Machida vs Shogun.Smart money is on Machida, but I'll be cheering the for Shogun.
I usually enjoy watching karate stylists more, but I've been a huge Shogun fan ever since he trashed Arona. I really hope and believe he could take this bout if he fights more like his 2005 self. Shogun at his peak is someone who'd make even Machida sweat.
Taking recent showings into account, the edge undoubtedly goes to Machida though.
Shogun was robbed. This is rediculous. Shogun is the rightful LHW champion.

I think Lyoto wins this one. Hopefully by KO or sub. I wasn't super impressed w/Rua v. Coleman.

Hope you're impressed now. That was the Shogun of Pride.
Everyone forgets that Shogun had a series of unfortunate injuries when he entered UFC. Shogun is back now and earned a belt that was stolen from him.
Originally posted by The NuulI don't think the ref had anything to do with it. Plus, I think Machida was complaining about the water on the ground.
Great fight but it was rigged. The ref talked to Machida before fight started. I knew something was up. I never though corruption was going to be in UFC.......fcking bullshit win.Rua won that fight every round.
Originally posted by Icy NinjaDW said immediate rematch. I doubt it though.
Shogun won that fight you even seen Dana tell him that. They need to overrule that decision and do an investigation on those judges worst decision ive seen in a while Shogun is the best 205 fighter.

Rua
-Did more damage.
-Hit more and cleaner hits.
-Had Machida on the run most of the time.
-Scored when coming out of the clinch.
-Shows better sportsmanship at the end while Machida look like a Actor form a porno with his horrible acting.
Rua at least won 4 rounds, he has a clear victory over Machida. However I knew before fight that its too soon for him to lose the title. There is corruption somewhere in this fight Machida and Dana are in on it. Dana is a marketing giant, he wants to make more money with big fights. They will have a rematch because of this and Rua should win again then its Silva vs Rua.
I dont like Machida anymore, seems that the whole camp is messed up. I cant stand Silva because of his arrogant ways.
Dana might be the new Don King.
