I appreciate his worth.

yeah but if you knew and liked MMA as much as you said you wouldn't call a high level fighter a coward.
and don't laugh you would piss your pants being in a cage with him or any of his oponents loser.
and i'm not really a big fan of his, but if you don't like him root against him, don't call him a coward it is ridiculous.

1. Whenever I see him I think to myself wtf? who is this freak? He makes no sense!
2. He prefers the romantic company of men

You are right. But I am a product of Sherdog. If you dont say something inflammatory, people skim over your posts looking for something that is. Like you

I don't think your comparison really holds up because Machida can't sell out a crowd by himself whereas Celine can.
Celine is a good at what she does but she is also an entertainer that attracts a large mainstream audience.
Machida is good at what she does, but is not so much an entertainer, and no one but the hardcore would pony up the cash to watch him like they would a Liddell, Couture, Lesnar, or Ortiz. He probably has as much pull as a Nogueria in this respect.
