I pick machida
You?
I got machida by ko. Luke is sloppy on the feet, Lyoto will capitalize big time.
Ttt
Ryoto
Machida.
I got rockhold by cock slap.
Honestly, it's a tough pick but I do think Luke comes out ahead. Machida has been in some great fights so it's got to catch up with him eventually against a championship caliber guy like Luke.
I'm excited to see either one fight the champ
Good Matchup but i wouldn't bet against machida against anyone other than Weidmann in that division
Speed will be the difference. Ma chee dah. Too fast. Too furious. No can defend.
Rockhold is looking for a killshot. He's pretty good at that, but to get it he will need space. Machida will be in and out before he can land, which will frustrate Rockhold and force him to make mistakes. Machida by stoppage in the 3rd round.
NM, just saw the other thread about a potential Machida injury. That changes EVERYTHING. Rockhold is definitely going to capitalize on any injury Machida may have. Rockhold by submission after rocking him if Machida is indeed injured. Gamechanger right there.
I've got machida by ko, It's like walking in to a wood chipper

lyoto has got to be super hard to train for, nobody fights like him
so i pick him every time
I'm picking Rockhold
I pick Machida, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if Rockhold wins
I think the five rounds puts it in Machida's favor.
Firemansam -Hope so...I rooting for Machida. The question is who do I bet on? That's the real question. I've made it my personal objective to never bet with my heart. Betting with emotions will get you in trouble. I like Machida, but once they walk in the cage I will know who came ready. Your body can't lie as you approach the cage. Your eyes don't lie. Body language speaks volumes, and equally important is the mindset. An injury would change who I bet on. I hope it's just cramps because I was leaning Machida on value. Rockhold would be the bet on size. He's the bigger man. Machida is the faster man. An injury limits the speed advantage, so it will factor which way I go with my money.KnockoutThoughts - NM, just saw the other thread about a potential Machida injury. That changes EVERYTHING.

*I'm
myee8 - Rockhold via him having the bigger cock...Who knows what the Dragon is packing?

Tripitaka's Triangle -Good value on close fights. Just because it's close on paper doesn't mean it will translate to the cage. Luke is a technician here. Machida is also a technician and faster. I also think he has more power in his punches. He is also paying positive money per dollar. I like him in this spot. If it was an easy pick then you would have to cough up $200-300 or more just to make $100 on what amounts to an uncertainty anyways. Every fight is uncertainty, which is why it's called risking your money. One of these guys is going to have a major advantage in the cage in real life. On paper it's close, in real life one of these guys is going to finish the other. Give me Machida at plus money.KnockoutThoughts -Wouldn't this just be a terrible fight to bet on?
