Bisping x Machida?

[SavageAngel]

...at the end of the day I'm against this fight. The Dragon might damage Mike's good eye. Not worth it.

The Dragon vs. Gastelum

WTF?? You want Machida facing prime top 5 MW????? Let him have his legacy fights against Bisping

 

[machidafan99]

No , Gastelum vs the winner of Romero vs Whittaker makes more sense.

Gastelum got owned by Weidman tho

I feel he would defeat little Kelvin

Machida is older, slower, and chinnier. However, all be has to do is watch the GSP and Gastellum fights to see the blueprint to beating Bisping. Fake with a strike to Bisping’s good eye and hit him on his weak side.

Same could be told about Mike.

Machida by superior technique and Machida Karate!

True , but then again Machida vs Weidman 2 would make some sense , honestly what would you suggest for Gastelum ?.

What? You don't fight fair and with honour!

No. But he did.

Not a loss to be ashamed of and KG was owning weedman for a large portion of that fight

I think Gastelum needs one more test before title shot.

I'd agree with you , however who would you suggests gets the next TS against the winner between Romero vs Whittaker ?

 

[pookiyama]

Possibly, but let's not forget Chuck vs. Wandy. The fight finally took place, years after they almost met in PRIDE, and it was one of the GOAT fights!

Possibly top 100 UFC fights. Definitely not top 250 MMA fights. No to GOAT.

So instead of Bisping risking a possible injury (in a pretty fair match-up based on age/cumulative damage), you'd make Lyoto fight a guy almost 15 years younger who is almost sure to KO him due to the differences in age and speed....and let Lyoto pick up more brain damage along the way? And you call yourself a Machida fan?

A fight to determine the top contender needs to be made, the MW division has been in flux and needs clarity.

Had Kelvin defeated Weidman he would be the one, no question.

A bit too early for a rematch to be honest.

 

[machidafan99]

A bit too early for a rematch to be honest.

The MW division is still a mess. Romero destroyed many of the hopefuls.

Luke Weidman II would be great but Luke doesn't want to cut weight anymore.

Damn, that's evil. Nice.

You're funny.

 

[pookiyama]

You're funny.

Make a little list. Its no Rory v. Robbie. You wouldn't make someone new a fan of the sport by having them watch that fight.

Machida retires Bisping

 

[ReadWrite]

Both are 39 and about to retire.
Both are strikers.
Both are popular.
This is a good, marketable, main event.

Bisping. He's been embarrassing PED users since USADA, this will be no different.

Machida looks exactly the same under USAda and never failed a test. He voluntarily submitted his supplements list with dhea listed on it, which is a dietary supplement you can buy at Walmart, and still somehow got a two year suspension. While jones got 1 year for testing positive for an estrogen blocker, which wouldn’t be in your system unless you put it there completely intentionally. Tell me which you think is worse. Also if you think bisping beats machida, you’re in denial.
