I am not surprised. This guy is a killer.Hostile;2785042 said:I got told I was crazy for saying Machida is impressive to me. Sorry, he is.

Who are the Light Heavyweights who could give him a match?TheCount;2785053 said:I don't think Evans ever stood a chance, he's not really a technician and you gotta be one to fight Machida.

maybe Rampage, maybe Anderson Silva. I think Machida is the next best thing to Fedor right now.Hostile;2785054 said:Who are the Light Heavyweights who could give him a match?
I do not know so I am asking.

Is GSP a Light Heavy?TheCount;2785062 said:Hell if I know, his style is unlike anything any of those guys have seen before, what light heavyweight is cerebral enough to crack it?

Anderson Silva has fought at 205 and his doing so again in his next fight against Forrest Griffin. though I think Anderson and Machida might train together since they're both brazillian and have the same translator.Hostile;2785057 said:Spider vs. Dragon?
Are they a match? I'd like to see that fight honestly.
I want to thank you for the link. They need to hit him before they can beat him. I liked Evans because against Griffin he was so explosive. You see him lay back like that, you know the man he is facing is dangerous. I was impressed the first time I saw Machida against Thiago Silva. This was by far more impressive.Ren;2785051 said:I don't think there's a LHW in the world right now that can beat him
gsp fights at welterweight(170) he will never fight Machida.Hostile;2785064 said:Is GSP a Light Heavy?
I haven't really even seen Machida hit in the head yet. He lands almost everything he throws.
oh yeah I forgot. Shogun might be able to give him a fight.Ren;2785065 said:If Shogun can get back to his Pride form maybe but even that is a long shot

I can see that though because he waits for a chance to strike and he does so from odd angles. By waiting there's less of a chance for knockouts. I like how he faked a trip with his right leg and landed a kick with the left. That takes balance and unreal skill.TheCount;2785071 said:GSP is a Walter, he's like 170 and under 6 feet, a bit of a mismatch size wise.
Machida has fought a good number of fights to decision, it's just hard for his opponents to track him down. He's not really a knock out specialist, though you'd never guess it from watching Evans take a dirt nap.
