    A 205er narrowly beating and never hurting an extremely fat blown-up LW isn't impressive to me. That fight did nothing to raise Machida in my eyes but all these years later and seeing what type of fighter Lyoto developed into, it does give me massive, massive respect for Penn. Definitely an elite iron-chinned warrior for scrapping and going toe-to-toe with a future LHW champion.
