    I don't really like MMA, but I do like they way Machida fights! I really like watching him fight. So if someone could please tell me when his next fight is and if he has a chance of someday regaining his title. Thank you in advance.

    Yeah that guy is hilarious always talking about burger king and i like rooting for him cuz i know it pisses dana white off when he wins. LOL! Well if neither one is fighting i guess i'll have to wait until i have a reason to watch MMA again. Thanks again for the info. You know before Machida i though MMA was boring and this guy made it funny! If MMA can bring more characters like this guy, and more technical strikers like Machida i could become a fan!

    Watch a few fights from current LHW champion Jon Jones, and then tell me whether you think Machida can get the title back

    I don't know this jones cat but i did see machida kick this guy evans or jackson (not sure which) ass and they robbed machida out of a victory. It seems thats how machida loses is on points, that might have more to do with the judges than his opponent. But i don't know enough about MMA so i could be wrong. Thank you for your civility on this forum.

    he KOd rashad to get the title and he got robbed against rampage.
    Tito Ortiz is recomended but he is shot to **** now but watch his old fights stuff as Dana white hated him along side Chuck Liddell and Ken Shamrock

    I've heard a lot of this Tito ortiz, infact when i started to talk about trinidad people thought i was referring to ortiz. The was my first clue that this MMA thing was gonna be big. I am glad it is cuz i got to see Machida. But all the fighters i like watching aren't doin anything machida, cung le, orbonson. So what is up with that orboson guy. He won tough right? Shouldn't he get a shot at the title? Or did he already and lose?

    yea agreed.
     
  13. Wanted to see Machida and Jon Jones fight early on, crazy style match up. First Rashad and Rampage need to get in there aswell as Shogun wherever he is at the moment.

    Machida didn't get robbed against Rampage, in spite of what many will say. The first 2 rounds were extremely close, but Rampage edged both (barely), the 3rd round was all Machida, and he won the 3rd round very convincingly, but not enough for a 10-8, it was very unfortunate, because Machida "won the fight" but he didn't win enough rounds. That fight was the perfect example of why the 10-point-must system doesn't work in a 3 round fight.

    Also, Machida is probably the most interesting fight for Jon Jones right now, but he needs to pick up another convincing win before he's back in the title picture. I highly recommend checking out some Jon Jones highlights on youtube if you're new to/dislike MMA

    I think Machida is gonna make a big comeback. I dunno about that Jon Jones match though.

    Machida didn't get robbed, at all. Under round scoring rules, he didn't score enough to win, a draw is the best he could've got, but he didn't win the last round 10-8 so Page won it. Deal with it.
