Styles make fights, and Shogun has the style to take machida out. Everyone keeps talking about cardio this, and cardio that. Look at how machinda fights, this isn't going to be a fast paced fight. I have said for months that Machida will be champ for a long time, I dont think there is anyone around to beat him except Shogun.... little did I know shogun would have gotten a fight liek this so quickly.
This is the perfect oppurtunity for shogun to go back to his old ways. If we dont see the return of Shogun here, chances are, we will never see shogun again. He is still young, has a huge amount of talent and can def. beat Machida. I am a huge fan of both, but I have to go with Shogun.
The bottom line in this fight is that Shogun hasn't shown me anything since coming to the UFC that would make me believe he can beat Machida. I just don't understand when people are gonna jump off Shoguns balls. He beat Coleman and Liddell...
