Not everyone can enjoy watching Machida fight. I like it though, it is a great fighting style. He hardly gets damaged in his fights which means he can have a long, successful career.
Everyone likes to watch a brawl but how long can you keep that up before your body catches up to you?
Yes. People call it smart fighting, but its really boring. Other than that one liver kick he didn't do anything. If they fought straight up Tito could TKO that puss.
This is the stupidest post I've ever read. And I mean that in no disrespect, cause I really like you WarHERO, but did they not JUST get done fighting "straight up"?
How can you say Tito will TKO him in a fight literally right after they just fought and he got his ass handed to him?
Honestly this fight didn't turn me on to Machida. I was really hoping to see a fight and it was not at all what I was hoping to see. He spent a good deal of the fight disengaging which is certainly his perogative and maybe even prudent but I would have loved to see Tito's last fight go off more like a fight than a technical hit and run type of deal. Tito good luck wherever you land and I look forward to seeing a fight with Machida that doesn't frustrate the hell out of me. On a personal level Machida is not easy to dislike but his style in the cage is NOT exciting, even against Tito.
He engaged on 'his' terms... thats being smart.
You cant fault a guy for disengaging when he knows its not where he wants to see the fight go...
It becomes Titos fault for letting him 'disengage'.
When they did engage, it was when Machida wanted to and he got his shots off

It was Tito's job to make it into that kind of fight... but when he couldnt, he got frustrated.
Why didnt he move with him then? Why did Tito simply keep doing the same thing over and over again knowing full well it wasnt going to pay off?
Tito's solution was to try to yell at him to stand still... good idea.

lol I was thinking the same exact thing after I read that. Serious wtf moment. BTW, how do you guys think a fight between Machida and Rampage would go?!
