Machida will KO Anders

[Roukas]

Enough with this bulllsbjt losing streak ... I've been watching since THE BEGINNING I know THE DRAGONS capabilities .... he will KO this fool and get his rhythm back ... Andrea is finished

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Hope so, though no hate on Anders.

Would love to see Teh Dragon get another big win or two before he sails off into the sunset.

 

[Breaking]

No.

 

[joeyjoejoe]

Fuck now that would a nice change of pace, Knocks his opponent out instead of receiving a savage beating. Damn the dragon got old on us lol, he’s still dangerous but he’s definitely lost a step.

 

[TITS]

Yeah, nothing against Anders but Machida has to win.

 

[daltonames]

Friend, i sympathize but if you've been watching since the beginning you should realize: he's almost 40, he has no chin, his reactions and striking is slower. He's lost a step or 2 in everything. He might win, but it's pretty much over for Lyota.

Only IF Technique/Experience can beat POWER/YOUTH/Ability... I don't know the odds but if Anders is much of an underdog I would bet on him as Machida is getting older/slower and more fragile. That one fight with Weidman seemed to have taken a bit outa him.

Agreed, agreed and agree. Don't let a training session or two tell you that this beast in Anders who is faster, stronger, hungrier and hits like a runaway train is the same as Latte and Americano to get you through another night at the Dojo training session hugging broskys because one or two of your old tricks works against Mr Business Man.

I remember back when hey were talking MACHIDA vs BROCK

Fairly new fan of Anders, since I'm from Alabama and he played college football there. It's win-win for Anders if he at least loses a close fight. If he wins, he beat the Dragon. If he loses a competitive fight, he lost to the Dragon, and will probably learn some lessons in the process.

Would love to see it, I think Lyoto needs some confidence back. Nothing erases a string of defeats, like a well timed, highlight reel KO.

[Roukas]

They were back when machida was undefeated he said he wanted to face Brock for the challenge and most thought machida would win if they fought

Exactly. I like Anders and have followed him since first becoming aware of him as a prospect. but I'm thoroughly hoping Lyoto pulls this one off.

It's just tough knowing that Anders has power and athleticism and is in his prime. Still, a vintage Machida performance would be awesome.

Man, Machida's era is long gone unfortunately. He never evolved.

Let’s go machida! Andrea is goin down

What's intriguing too is that it is still tough to gauge where Lyoto stands in his career. No one at 39 is going to be getting better, that's for sure, but I look at the last few years and think, losing to Romero and Rockhold is no shame- so did Weidman and he's one of the best.

Now losing to Brunson how he did is where it gets dicey. On the one hand, Brunson is a first-round finisher. He has 11 first-round finishes with strikes. So, again, getting put down by Brunson is not something that jumps out to me and says, "Oh Lyoto has no chin!" It more just says, yeah Brunson hits hard and is dynamic and fast.

At the end of the day, though, Lyoto should be beating Brunson. Brunson is a good fighter for sure, but that should be a winnable fight for him and the fact that he lost in that way and did not Jacare him makes me think that it is certainly coming toward the end.

I want to see a return to form of sorts tonight though. And anyone who knows Anders knows he is legit so it would be a big win if Machida can pull it off.

Hoping for the old Machida to show up and get the ko but I wont be surprised if he takes another beating.

IT'S A POSSIBLE!
