Machida will beat Tito convincingly imo. Tito doesn't have the stand-up to trade with him and hes gonna get caught with a couple trips throughout the fight and Machida will finish Tito from the top.
he stood up with chuck liddel in his 2nd fight im pretty sure he can stand with fuckin machida and tito has a chin dont forget that

Black House is the NWO of mma. I am surprised they don't spray paint the belts.

This is how Tito Ortiz stood up with Chuck Liddell?

long jab, good head movement, again uses footwork well, circles his opponents well
has longer range than most every his wgt
and when he's in close, he knows how to switch up on the knee

neither guy has great power, but it's another reason why they don' over commit and get caught
accuracy and defense beat power and open guard anyday
exactly, but i think machida is deceptivly strong. He fractured nakamura's face. Anderson has good power as well, he rocked dan henderson. Although neither of them has the 1 hit ko power, they have good percision striking.
