Who Else Thinks That Machida Would Destroy Gustafsson

Even though Shogun and Rampage beat him Machida has the most left in the tank and is the one guy out of these three who can still hang at the very top and beat the up and coming killers like Gustafsson. Gus is very hittable and can be taken down also, honestly I think Machida would put on another masterful classy performance and own him. Trust me, Gus wouldnt take that fight with him if Hendo couldnt fight Machida. At the post fight pressier Gus was saying that he wants to take a fight instead of waiting for Jones, but then when asked if he would fight Machida he quickly retracted and said how he would have to consult his team before answering that. He wants none of him!!

 

I could see him getting caught with a straight left and getting dropped.

 

Destroy? No.
But I think he could beat him UD at best

 

Yes, because it's two months away. I think he'll fight him and I think he'll beat him.

 

Gustafsson is laughably overrated on here. He would lose to Machida, Rashad, Hendo and Jones.

 

i don't see anyone destroying gustafsson. if machida were to win, it'd be a close decision.

 

Nah. Not destroy. Gustaffson is legit. I want to see this guy dance with Jones. He's got the size, at least.

 

I don't think guys without the $$$ can beat machida too easily. You need to hire lots of trainers and spend alot of money on camps that they don't have.

 

so you say he'd lose to 4 top 5 guys, and that makes gustafsson overrated? you sir, are an idiot.

also, he'd whip rashad's and hendo's asses.

 

hendo? lmfao.

 

Not sure about Hendo but agree that the rest would beat him.

 

evans would get shad'faced all over again. probably worse this time.

 

The shots Gus was able to take from Shogun to me suggest that he'd be able to take what Machida has to offer on the way of hustling him out of his comfort zone.

Its not glass but Lyoto's chin is clearly a level below Shogun/Hendo/Gus and when he's really pushed standing his boxing defence is to me very questionable aswell.

 

Fixed.

 

Machida is the most overrated fighter in mma history. Dan is going to ko him and Gus would do the same.

 

Yeah, because if you lose to those four and no one else in the entire world in your weight class, surely you must suck

 

Machida could flash KO him with a counter punch or something but I don't consider that destruction; or likely.

 

i think that machida would have the best chance to make gustafsson look lost because of his very elusive style.
