    I agree. After him probably Rampage. Still Machida is a big favourite against everyone in the division. It's hard to see him losing really.

    Rampage is the next victim.

    Shogun could have the style to cause Machida problems though imo.

    So, Rampage vs. Machida next? Rampage is too one-dimensional to win that match.

    Before this fight, Dana was probably thinking, "Please, please don't let Machida win and keep the belt forever."

    After that knockout, he's got to be like, "Damn! I love this guy."

    The way Machida did it was so impressive, shows he is in a class of his own. I think many people underestimated his hands. He seems to have heavy fists.

    My thoughts exactly.

    They didn't even seem to have a lot of pop, but Rashad hit the floor like he had been shot in the face.

    Rampage does not deserve Lyoto. He wouldnt come close to hitting Machida. I dont have to analyze and justify this fight. Machidas toughest test will be A Silva or Fedor or someone not in MMA.

    I think he will easily pick apart and put away Rampage, but Shoguns style is going to be the harder to figure out and deal with.

    Shogun will be more aggressive and harder to read for Machida.

    Hey Radab.

    I watch it whenever it's on, but it ain't the fight game.

    Machida is impressive, I've seen his last four fights. I like him a lot. He's so methodical.

    Yea the only guy in the UFC I see giving Lyoto much of a fight is Shogun. I doubt Lyoto and A. Silva would fight each other and Fedor isn't fighting in the UFC so..... Shogun it is.

    jackson are u kiddin me? Evans would ktfo Jackson......and look what Lyoto did to Evans.

    Evans is still one of my favorites and hopefully there will be a rematch by next year, rashad looked a little uncomfortable.

    Lyoto is amazing tho.
