Nobody would want to see a card lined-up with 10 people who fight like Machida.

thank you...it was still boring, and that's not from someone who doesn't "understand" the fight game. He is just way too passive a fighter.

machida did a great job stuffing the takedowns. not a boring fight at all.

Everyone I watched this fight with was bored, but me..... I was stuck on it, Machida's defense is sick, the way he moves in an out I can see why he is undefeated. His reflexes are insain!! I'm on the bandwagon for a title shot!!! I don't see anyone at 205 stopping him. I love what the UFC hsa done to the 205 division!! It's stacked!!! Not just stacked with solid fighters but with entertaining fighters!!

5 fights of people circling each other and not engaging. You'd pay to see that? You = Sherdog sheep.

Machida did exactly what he had to do to beat Tito.

Like him or not he reminds me of a really skilled boxer with fast hands. Like a young pernell or roy jones. He is so fast and almost impossible to get a clean hit on him.

People still don't get it. Styles make fights. What happened in the Machida vs Soku fight? Soku had a much different style than Tito and Machida did finish him! I guess it was boring to watch him finish Soku too?

What did you expect Lyoto to do? What? Stand in front of Tito and let him hit him in the face? Let Tito take him to the ground so Tito could GnP him, Tito's strength?

He completely schooled Tito. He picked him apart from the outside. When Tito finally moved in Lyoto took him down!! Once he had him down he got him in the crucifix position and went for the GnP finish but the bell rang. In the 3rd when Tito was coming in Lyoto landed the big knee and immediately jumped on him to attempt to finish again. This time Tito was able to sustain the attack and get a nice triangle choke that Lyoto was squeezing out of and Tito switched to an armbar but couldn't make him tap.

Tell me exactly what Tito did that was so aggressive?

What did he do to push the fight? He just plodded forward and threw nothing. Yet everyone says Lyoto didn't do anything. Tito barely laid a hand on Machida but Machida messed Tito's face up and gave him a liver shot he will be feeling for weeks.
