Ahhh I love it!!! I thought it was definitely close. but i don't think it was a bad decision at all. Rogan was just all over Shogun's nuts during the commentary and all he'd talk about is Shogun countering Machida but he totally doesnt even make mention of Machidas punches to Shoguns face. Rogan is such a nut-hugger sometimes.

Devil what say you?

That's BS. A great fight between 2 top fighters. just because you don't like the decision doesn't make it a fix.

Your the noob cause you dont understand MMA, the fight wasn't even close. What killed boxing has now came to the UFC, did you see the odds. Thats alot of money to lose.

Wow!!! Tonight's fights were awesome. Machida vs Rua was a great fight. I expected a lot more action in it, but it was still good IMO. Closer than I wanted it to be. And I hate to say it, but I thought Rua won it.

So if it's not from sherdog you get your knowledge from that piece of ^^^^ forum huh? explains a lot.

and im sorry but any publication with a so called 'judge' scoring the that close fight 50-45 for Rua loses all credibility in my book.

go to my link, the UG is the greatest MMA forum in the world, all the fighters post there, your a fool if you think Machida won.

 

[LOTRFan]

They were already lining up Shogun/Silva; ouch, I do think he was robbed, certainly shouldn't have been unanimous.

 

[nash]

I think Machida definitely took rounds 1 and 2, shogun definitely took 4 and 5. Round 3 is obviously the deal breaker and I don't dispute that Machida won that.

That was an insanely close fight. I really wanted to mute Joe and Gold near the end though. Can't wait for Machida vs ShoGun 2.

LOL me too. Seems like Joe was riding on Rua's sack during the 4th and 5th rounds.

I felt he was riding Rua's sack the whole 5 rounds. If one were to judge the fight by Rogan's commentary alone, Rua would win the fight 5 rounds to 0.

 

[nash]

Like ive said, machida landed more strikes to the face and SOLID knees to the body. shogun landed more kicks to the leg and body. If shogun had got one or two take downs, or a few punches to the face, he would have definitely won this fight.

sorry but leg kicks don't win fights. take downs and strikes to the face do.

Was this a close fight? HELL YES.

But I dont see how you guys see it as robbery. robbery imo is shogun winning 4 rounds to 1. it was easily 2 to 2...with one round going either way.

I can't wait for the rematch.
