Lyoto Machida: The Last Samurai

a true master

 

That was great showing by Lyoto, I'm in love with his style. :happy

 

I love watching Machida. He had a pretty much perfect performance against Bader.

I think his best performance was against Thiago Silva. That was an almost Silva/Griffin level outclassing.

 

I have that bad boy on DVD, UFC 94. Great fight card :good

 

It's actually the only guy who I'll stop zapping on that channel if I see him in a MMA fight.
Last time I watched him he was 14-0 or 15-0. Heard he lost a couple meanwhile.

 

I love Machida, one of my all-time favourites. One of the best strikers in MMA history. His technique, style and accuracy are all amazing. If he can keep the fight standing against Jones he can win, but I just don't know how any 205lbs man can stop Jon Jones taking them down.

 

he got a loss against rampage jackson. although just about everyone, including rampage thought lyoto won.
the judges didn't appreciate lyoto's counterstriking.

 

Beautiful performence, thats when I quit talking smack about Machida and fell in love watching him. Just perfect destruction over a legit contender and the finish was awesome. The knockout comes at the end of the round and I remember the ref I think Yves looking at a cold Silva for about 2 secounds then just waving it off.

Great performance.....beautiful display of his unique style !

 

The only fight I bet against him was against Shogun because I wanted Shogun to at least win a UFC title and he did.

Too bad Jones was an excellent grappler as well. Had it been a stand-up war, I'm not sure who could've won.

And yeah, Rampage lost that one.

Probably just karma for his win in the 1st go with Shogun.

 

Im not so sure how Lyoto's KO of Bader was impressive?? Bader ran face first like ****** into Lyoto with both hands down.. That has to be one of the dumbest moves in the history of the fighting game. I mean really , who does that.. ?!?

 

probably anyone who realizes that they cannot win and risk rushing forward.
