As to the value of statistics like these, it is hard to really gauge. The effectiveness of each strike/sub attempt is questionable, particularly when you factor in the individuals involved.

Anyhow, I think anyone who watched the fight knows Machida won, particularly if they watched the part where the ref raised his hand, but I think a lot of people don't like his counter-striking style. To them, I have to say this:

Patience is a virtue, and Machida knows that.
i agree machida is pure skill....but back when wrestlers were doing the same thing everyone made a huge stink and now we have ref interference in the fights...

too bad tito didn't go for broke...he looked to be in good shape...just not fast enough.
