Where's Machida?

I quess with all of the Championship belts being challenged in the next couple of months, gives Machida a chance to rest those ribs. I like Machida, but I would take a little more humble and mature approach to the next fight. I am a big fan of Machida, but I would like to see him be a little more mature with his fame. Well, anyway, does anyone know when he goes up to bat again with Rua, most likely, right?

nah' date=' he's resting the hands he broke from punching shogun in the face.

 

how exactally can machida be "more humble"? did i miss some incident of machida saying how awesome he was?[/quote']

 

Maybe it was just that the media gave him more opportunity to speak, but he had alot to say. I still like him and I know he wasn't too bad. But, I believe the Rua fight was a humbling experience. I did forget about the hand injury. I believe Machida will put away any doubts that he is the best and maybe even knockout Rua.

Thanks for the video. I can't wait to see if his brother can take on BJ. BJ you know is very accomplished in BJJ. Maybe we can see how karate can counter superior boxing of Penn.

BJ has alot of experience. Machida's brother I'm sure will have to work up to BJ, but it is very interesing to me to see how he does. Brother's feed off each other and maybe will give each other an even more competitive edge to see who can when the next fight.

From the way Machida talks, he makes his brother seem like a better karate fighter than him.

Yeah and you actually believe that he broke his hand during that fight. They just didn't want to spill the beans on the real reason he was in the hospital. Machida the paper champ is going to get knocked out this time, I truly can't wait for the rematch

Get over yourself. Do you even know how easy it is to break your hand in a fight?

Btw, that big belt that Machida wears don't look very paper to me.

Good interview m'man, good job. Very interesting some of the things he had to say too.

 

He seemed more adamant about not fighting Anderson than Minotoro, I would love to see either fight styllistically, but wouldn't die if I didn't. I can dig the kind of respect they show each other. Some things are bigger than a paycheck.

 

And Shinzo @ LW as a more offensive version of Lyoto? That could be special, Hope to see that happen before BJ is gone. That style matchup would be phenomenal!

yeah, Machida pissed me off with the whole "no one can sheee my shile"

its like come on you just started finishing people before they had to run you down.

i think the ironic part of this is that, he always won decisions then when he loses to shogun people make it seem like shogun should have to knock him out to win the belt.

That is the way he won the belt, he should be able to lose it that way...
