I'm going with Machida. I don't see anyone figuring him out anytime soon.

Sometime Machida will lose, but I have a strong feeling Thiago Silva will not be that person.

He posted on sherdog telling everyone how weak Machida's striking is.
Yeah Hoger is a credible source. remember when he said that Forrest DIDN'T beat him in the first season of TUF? oh no he was fine.
