Lyoto would be elusive while Cung Le would basically just be doing tons of fancy kicks and kata.

Brings up a good point.... a lot of people only think about how elusive Machida is on the feet, but in reality he is a well rounded MMArtist. For this reason I would rather watch Machida, but as far as standup games go I prefer Le's kickboxing/San Shou style because it is more devastating/exciting.

Cung Le looks to attack more which makes him more exciting to watch imo. Machida's style is interesting to watch due to the technical nature but he has to be in against a top level aggresive fighter in order for it to be an exciting bout!

On the other hand now your starting to see alot of "i hate Lyoto, hes boring" threads. I think Lyoto is the far superior fighter than Cung, hes younger and just as good of a striker, yet his ground game is much better. Both fighters are also great wrestlers.
So i ask you mma fans, who would you rather pay your money to watch, Lyoto who has fought better fighters but doesn't finish as much, or Cung who has fought average fighters with a record of 100% KOs.

cung le is in the top 3 most overated fighters right now. frank shamrock was an obsolute fool in that fight and i highly suspect he was paid off by elite to stand and bang with le. shammy could have easily wrecked le on the ground imo.
i would like to see le fight a real fighter just to watch him get destroyed like canbo slice.
