Not really that he has a perfect game plan, Machida just excels In fighter where the other fighter is agressive and he capitalizes and makes advantage of is inhuman dodging and sidestep abillity, his gameplans are solid but he abandons them sometimes to try to finish , even though he did finish vs rashard he game plan was not to burst out and swing for the fence because he smelled blood, if he tries that with Rua He could get Ko'ed

No not really the only person Machida fought that he beat that was good was rashad other than that he anit fought s**t. shogun has fought rampage chuck colmen antio. As where machida really hasnt fought big names yet yes he is hard to hit but I still believe he will lose in the end.

thats the most insane thing ive heard

Win Kengo Watanabe Decision (Unanimous) NJPW - Ultimate Crush 5/2/2003 3 5:00

This does not look like a list of nobodies over 85% are top world material or have fought top level comp to say machida's only big win is rashad means you need to learn A little about the fighter first, Rich franklin(top 10 LHW), B.J penn(PFP Ranked, Top LW), Bonnar(great fighter), Micheal Mac(Top K-1 Kickboxer), Sam Greco(Top Kickboxer), Tito Ortiz(great fighter),Thiago Silva( Beast Period.),Rashad Evans(Great fighter First loss)

To me looks like a list of the who's who of MMA...Im not taking anything away from Rua, As I said I want rua to win but I cannot take away the fact machida has the skills and credentials that you seem to not give him credit for

No doubt Machida has been in the ring/cage with some monsters ... and don't forget Sokoudjou and Kazuhiro Nakamura ... those two were veterans of Pride ... Sokoudjou knocked out Lil' Nog and Ricardo Arona ... everyone though he was going to destroy Machida ... Machida seemed to be playing with him ... same with Nakamura ... he fought a whos-who in MMA ... they thought his expeirence would overcome Machida ... not even close ... so yeah ... Machida is more than ready for Shogun ... Shogun will have to fight the perfect fight to beat Machida ...

Not really that he has a perfect game plan, Machida just excels In fighter where the other fighter is agressive and he capitalizes and makes advantage of is inhuman dodging and sidestep abillity, his gameplans are solid but he abandons them sometimes to try to finish , even though he did finish vs rashard he game plan was not to burst out and swing for the fence because he smelled blood, if he tries that with Rua He could get Ko'ed

but the reason he is such a great fighter is because he understands when to let loose and when not too plus i think machida will win if he rua trys to take him to the ground he has that nice submission win over sokudague (sorry if i spelt his name wrong)
