Wonderboy the new Machida prime?

[Dowdy]

Back in prime Machida days, nobody could work him out - his elusiveness, countering.

I think Wonderboy might be the new prime Machida 2.0

Have we entered the wonderboy era?

 

[Conor McTouchbutt]

Machida wishes he was ever as good as Wonderboy.

 

[muaytao]

Wonderboy is actually active. Machida was just elusive and boring.

[scardera]

macheater is a fraud

 

[Mrk_Brdshw]

Very similar, but Wonderboy is definitely more active offensively. He also has much more of an advantage than Machida ever did because he is actually pretty big for his division and gets to utilize a reach advantage with all of his other gifts.

 

[Was at Pride GP 2000]

What is their age difference? Not that far apart

This, Machida was way to pasive in his fight style, it was either a ko or a boring fight. Even when Wonderboy didn't finish Rory, he landed a lot and made Rory's face a mess

What is their age difference? Not that far apart

Wonderboy is 33 I think Machida is 37 or 38

Wonderboy is a great fighter. Always liked him, fighting style is fantastic and entertaining to watch.

 

[Lawblaw]

MMA fans have short term memory.
They forget how great prime Machida was, wonderboy is incredible though

 

[Zarra]

Wonderboy is better tho.

 

[WimpLo2]

Wonderboy is a great fighter. Always liked him, fighting style is fantastic and entertaining to watch.

What does that have to do with the comment he made?

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Hopefully joe rogan doesnt welcome us to the wonderboy era. If so, it will be short lived.

 

[Blayt7hh]

Pretty similar

But the first incarnation of machida didn't show anywhere near the finishing ability that Wonderboy has.

 

[AMAZINGUFC]

Wonderboy is much more active, offensive and also with more variety in his attacks
