Easy win for Machida.

I don't see how people are blaming Machida for this fight not ending in a KO. What do you want from Lyoto, to stand in the center of the cage, not move at all, and trade/eat right hands all night?

He didn't run away, he engaged when he wanted to and didn't get hit. Not his fault Dan doesn't bring anything besides a right hand to the fight.

Well that was uneventful, Dan kept going for big telegraphed shots and Machida's only real concern seemed to be avoiding them. I guess Machida 29-28 but I'd expect at least one judge will see it for Hendo so who knows. Neither guy should be a contender though.

machida do anything how can he win jesus you guys are the same guys who complain about lay and pray but when lyoto stands and does nothing its justified

he actually landed the right hand twice to machida, 1 time in the first hard and one in the 2nd not as hard but still decent, that and he landed more body shots and way more leg kicks that bruised lyotos leg and finally the round 3 top control means he did a lot more than machida, machida didn't land any kicks like joe would have you believe he landed only a few punches to the head standing and 2 on the ground.
I'll watch the fight again tomorrow morning and we'll talk about this when you're less drunk and obnoxious.... well at least less drunk.

Meh. I also scored it for Lyoto. And let's not be too hard on the man. He's given us some quality highlight reel finishes, but everyone here knows he's a counter striker at heart. Sometimes he's going to fight smart, sometimes he's going to go for broke.

People can knock Machida for back peddling, but Dan didn't exactly go all out to cut him off.

Dan Henderson has completly forgotten how to fight he just throws that big hand over and over and over. These aren't SF scrubs that shit isn't landing.
