I forgot they even fought

That first flight was one of the worst robberies I've ever seen.

I remember the first fight not being very good. Machida fans never let go of that decision though.

Currently, Davis should be able to dominate, but I hope The Dragon pulls it off somehow.

At this point of their careers, Davis should be favorite to get the win. Winner gets winner of Bader vs Nemkov?

He was never on juice.

i didnt say that

but i am wondering if he plans on putting mass on aka bulk up

 

[CinemaKingdom]

Dang, I've been waiting all this time for a Machida fight...and they make the most boring fight possible.

He just fought at 205lbs right before his Mousasi rematch.

No one on Earth, besides maybe Davis, wants Bader vs Davis 3.

honestly, haven't kept up with Lyoto much since he joined Bellator

True, but the Bellator LHW isnt that deep to make any other fight. Nemkov vs Davis would also be a rematch. Perhaps this is the reason why Bader can move to HW and defend both titles at the same time, neither division is too deep.

Polizzi and Anglikas are good up and comers but by no means ready or deserving of a title shot.

Bader Vs Davis 3?

The UFC typically has fair decisions. Of course there are some poor ones. But that first Machida-Davis fight was still the biggest robbery I have seen. Machida won all 3 rounds yet didn't win on a single judges score card. Not to mention, a judge gave Davis round 3....absurd.

Excellent.

I don't remember the fight itself, but I couldn't believe the Brazillian crowd boo'ed the decision.

i think phil davis will beat the current machida.

i think phil davis will beat the current machida.

That's what I'm thinking as well. Which blows because it would be nice to see lyoto get the win.

Unfortunately, that may just be what will happen

 

[josh345]

Don’t like it. Wish lyoto would retire. He had a great comeback.

 

[strebitel86]

Machida will get outgrappled in this fight.
