I think Machida is a boring fighter and don't care to see him fight again.

I don't see what the big deal is. He is what he is. Don't care.

Heres my diagnosis....WATCH THE FUCKING FIGHTS AFTER MACHIDA ORTIZ...

Dude you're rambling on to some totally off the wall shit, did you just give up on the argument and decide to plead mental insanity?
This was my whole post, skip the best part I see.

Its a weird thing with Machida. I think he is easily a top 5 LHW, but he does seems to "run" a lot in his fights. Call it "elusive" like Rogan all you want, but hey i guess its smart.
I really dont know who can take Machida down and GnP him??? Can anyone grab a hold of him and force him into a clinch/dirty boxing situation? Tito did for a minute, but he could really damage him at all. Maybe Randy or Rampage?

Actually he's right.
Mishaja's Summa summarum:
Machida landed:
21 kicks,
23 punches
3 knees
3 elbows
1 takedown
Tito landed:
8 punches,
3 knees
attempted a triangle/armbar.
51 scored aggressions vs Tito's 12
Numbers are conclusive.
You are clearly an idiot if you think Machida didn't outclass, out strike and outfight Tito.

Summa summarum: Machida landed 21 kicks, 23 punches, 3 knees, 3 elbows and 1 takedown, that is 51 scored aggressions vs Tito's 11 or 12, depending on how you judge the failed submission. Numbers are conclusive. Machida had an easy fight, Tito look frustrated and weaponless, unable to solve the conundrum of Machida's orbital attack. Those who understand MMA were delighted by Machida's finely tuned act. His MMA is delightful, but it takes some culture to appreciate it. The beer-drinking hoi polloi that makes the bulk of the UFC audience, mostly gum-chewing illiterates, those who were predicting a win for Ortiz (a most ridiculous assumption), saw their dreams elegantly shattered as well as their patience, hopes and predictions. Lyoto won easily, as anyone who understands MMA had predicted, Tito is still wondering what happened and the UFC crowd's chorus of boos advertised little but their blatant ignorance. I salute Machida for a great win, Ortiz for attempting his best, and I hope the UFC crowd will slowly depart from the darkness of their blood-seeking appetites to the enlightened appreciation of superior fighting.
