finally watched this and was pretty saddened as a Machida fan. It seems like his stance is different than what it was when he fought Tito, Rashad. He's not leaned as far back at the waist and his feet aren't as far apart anymore. It has some advantages with his power kicking game but I wonder if this has compromised his balance and TDD as well as his ability to avoid head shots? Do you guys think the damage he took from the Rockhold fight had any effect on his quick finish at the hands of Romero or was it the broken nose? Both? Or is romero just a beast? I think probably all of the above but wanted your guys opinions. Thanks
