Oh Boy, Weidman is in deep doo-doo, Machida is a straight up wrestla-killer.

It would be a NC bro, his techniques aren't even legal in MMA. Weidman would be DEAD.

He's getting it ready as we speak.

he very well could have lost to hendo in a close split decision, and he got destroyed by jones, beat soundly by rampage and davis... so id say his record against wrestlers is good but not as great as some make it out to be.
that being said I still favor him in the fight.
but Weidman has risen to the occasion every time he steps into the cage.

Beat soundly by Page and Davis? Maybe you need to watch the fights .. there's no way anyone watches those fights and comes to this conclusion.
 
Lyoto Machida has taken out Mark Munoz, Tito Ortiz, Bader, Henderson, Couture, Rashad and arguably Davis and Jackson.

took out means a lot of different things. if you want to say arguably, then i'd say he didn't take out henderson or ortiz. but he did beat them.

maybe 'defeated' would be a better term? or maybe if you didn't include the 'arguably' bit about davis and jackson. but at some point i was wondering what you meant.
 
interesting to see what the odds are going to be. got to go with machida though.

Damn that's an impressive record.

And considering this was at 205, I can only imagine how Lyoto will manhandle and thrash Weidman at 185.

For all of you bettors out there, I'll throw you a bone, bet the house on Lyoto and do it before the odds go down. I've already put down a dime (that's 10K in gambler lingo). I know some of you don't have that kind of money, but my professional advice would be to gather up as much as you can and lay it down on the line.

Wow, that sucks that you have to lose $10K. Sorry, man.

2 out of 3 rounds go to both fighters in the respective fights.
objective judging aside.
an argument can be made either way.
as DFW would say...
don't leave it in the hands of the judges
 
Machida definitely beat Davis and probably beat rampage.

Butttt... not sure about his chance against Weidman.
 
Unless the wrestler is athletic and explosive.. ;)

haha jk I thought he did enough to beat Davis and Rampage. However, if Weidman is half as impressive as he seems so far it will be a very tough fight as we could be dealing with the beginning of a middleweight Jon Jones
 
Love watching Silva fans jump on the bandwagon of the next fighter to face Weidman.

How does it feel faking hope for a fighter when you know Weidman is actually very good?

Does it cut you up Inside lying to yourself?

Weidman is going to have his way whether Machida likes it or not.

That was my point. They were very close fights .. most people had Machida winning. Machida losing is not a robbery though, VERY close.

In no way, shape, or form, was Machida SOUNDLY beat.
 
It was a rare occurrence that Machida got taken down at 205, he will be like an oak at 185.

:icon_lol: A kickboxer took the mighty oak down. Must've been an even rarer occurrence at 185. So, not really. Weidman will catch his kicks and knees all day. If I were Machida I'd be learning how to box and fight off my back well right about now.

For 1 second? You do realize you fight different when you are afraid of takedowns right?
