See some of Machida fights if you want to see it done like a pro.
When the hell has Machida done anything close to that.

The throw was 100% legit and its not like he was aiming to land him on his head lol, however if he was I'm not even mad, Im just impressed.

Machida's throws are more elagent. I think that was the point he was trying to make. As cool as that throw looked (and it did look awesome), it mainly looked that way because Heath was too dazed from the knee to fall properly. Karo has thrown people straight on their heads who were not dazed at all. He really is the mma expert on this type of throw.

Isn't that just a brute force version of a judo throw?
