Tito/Machida. Who do you guys pick to win?

Machida, no question.

fighters that can adapt to any situation (Fedor, Machida) are fighters than tend to have the upper hand regardless of the term 'styles make fights'.

I like them both and deep down I know Machida is gonna win but I would like Tito to win it. Its his last fight in UFC and I want him to leave on a high note. I wonder if Dana White/UFC made the match hoping Machida would kick his ass.

definitley. Joe Silva is the matchmaker, but Dana is the guy who approves it. He definitley wants to see Tito lose. Tito actually tried to hire Belfort to help him with this fight and Belfort did not accept. Just a rumor going around apparently. Machida is in a better camp, and has fought the better competition in the past few years.

and some news:

Hughes vs Alves
Lytle vs Kosheck

both sound like great fights.

Matt Hughes? I thought he was going to retire.

no, he has a fight with Alves next.

i think he said he'll be fighting about 2 more years and he'll retire.

I wonder if he'll stay in the same weight class. I dont really see him beating GSP for the title and if GSP remains on top, theres no hope of him getting the title. If thats the case, What purpose does his fights have? Just for the money?

Dana White has just made a music video with Chuck Liddell and Joe Rogan.

if Kang decides to stand up with Mousasi, he's going to have trouble. Mousasi has been boxing a good portion of his life. other than that, Kang should win this by decision. take him down and pound him out.

wow! mousasi vs kang was unexpeced.

like i said before, Mousasi is my favorite fighter but the way he won was surprising. i thought he would win by KO or Decision.

If he fights Melvin Manhoef next, it will be a sick fight man.

I'm not going to lie to ya'll. I kinda hope Fedor loses to Tim for not fighting higher tier competition in his last few scraps. I really wanna see him fight Randy or even fight Nog again. Tim's the best guy Fedor's faced in quite a while. Might catch him off guard

I'm hoping Fedor kills Tim. I'd much rather see some organization try to work out Randy vs Fedor than Tim vs Randy 2. Honestly, you really want to see Tim fight Randy or Nogueira again? If Tim beats Fedor, then Randy vs Fedor is pretty much pointless in the eyes of many.

Randy vs Nogueira would also be a good one, but UFC seems to be overlooking it. It actually makes more sense than Randy vs Fedor I'd say.

anyone watch Dream 3?

what an incredible event.

Hansen vs Alvarez is no question fight of the year.

Their defense was awesome. Both of them were in pretty rough spots and were able to pull through. Awesome fight. Hate the 4 sided ring!
