I see him beating cheetah

Rockhold takes it.

 

[Donny White]

Can the Rockhold cuckold the Cheetah?*

Fixed

Rockhold's weakness- kicks to the dome

Lyoto specializes in that.

Don't let anyone ever tell you that you lack imagination. :redface:

Or originality

Rockhold's weakness- kicks to the dome

Lyoto specializes in that.

In short: I don't think that if Machida wins the fight, it will be via head kick. TRT-Vitor isn't the same as Machida.

I think this one is a toss up. I like the stylistic match up, should be a great fight. I just have no clue who takes it, so I'll just enjoy it when it happens. Fan of both too.

But the same foot that KO'd Couture and Munoz will be in the cage with them.

 

[Jin Akutsu]

War Cheetah!

Rockhold's weakness- kicks to the dome

Lyoto specializes in that.

I'm pretty sure getting caught once with a spinning heel kick by one of the nastiest strikers in UFC history is not considered having a weakness against kicks to the dome.

I'll call it weakness if it happens more than once. But I'd call that one a learning experience.

 

[Char Jawz]

Jones and Shogun already slayed the dragon.

No mention of The Chris?

 

[Post Crisis]

Suspend for threatening to kill lyoto

 

[Toco]

But the same foot that KO'd Couture and Munoz will be in the cage with them.

munoz is quite bad and couture had like 50 year old

 

[Paynebringer]

The only way Luke wins this is if he hits Machida with his dick. Luke stands too straight up and down prime Machida target, bookmark my ass Luke gonna get KTFO!

Pretty much this, sums up better than I can.

 

[Deleroux]

I think this will resemble Machida vs. Mousasi, except Rockhold might not have the chin Mousasi did.

 

[cumafish]

very much looking forward to this fight, presents stylistic issues for both guys.
that usually means the fight will be entertaining.

Pretty even fight
