Why?
He fought his heart out - he knew it was his last hurrah.
Lyoto ran away and landed some VERY limited (though admittedly effective offense).
Who you going to go for? a spirited, aggressive fighter, or an 'elusive' brilliant coward?

Machida nearly beat Tito at the end of the first round. That was mighty impressive.

As a Canadian, I have no problem with this thread. Celine Dion rocks and so does Machida.

well, i felt bad for Tito in his last fight for UFC...he wanted good fight,like ts said he gave heart,but Machida just didn't wanted to fight with him that night...Lyoto is good fighter but sometimes (kinda often) he really just running around...with that style he will never be LHW champion,soon or later some1 will figure him out....

My point? There's Megadeth fans, ABBA fans, Beatles fans and Guns N' Roses fans.
They are all music fans.

wrong
There is no better musics than an other, Everybody has just his opinions. it s subjective.
There is better MMA skills than others, It s not subjective.
That why I meant in my previous post.

So you r just watching MMA fights cause they are "funs" ? Machida is not "fun" so you don"t like him ? Well you r watchings mma fights like a kid or a casual fan. You have to be at the next level man. Every hardcore fans like machida because his skills and style are working very well in fights, and they are impressed about it. You r not.

This board wouldn't have to deal with the Machida nutthugging if the guy had an average fight record. Could you imagine a sherdog conversation going like this: "I know Machida doesn't have the best record but his style is so friggin' elusive and elegant."

Soner or later, EVERYONE gets figured out and beaten in MMA. As tough as you might be, there is always someone out there with the perfect skill set to beat you at least once. That's what makes the sport so great!!

Perhaps you should read my post you quoted in this reply. Im tired of Machida fans elitist comments. Not liking Machidas style doesnt mean we dont understand MMA.
Obviously the wording of my thread is a bit inflammatory. On sherdog, threads need to be - if you are reasonable and balanced in your arguements, people skim over them.
