Look at the fight with Machida and Tito. Tito almost made him tap with a triangle. Tito. I don't think he's ever made anyone ever tap out unless it was from stricks. Now i know shoguns no the best with submissions but if he can get Machida up by the cage use his knees and take him down i think he can make him tap. - Quinton Sat, 30 May 2009 16:42:26 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3102 lyoto machida is in a league of his own. this in no way takes away from potential challengers. mauricio rua is a champion in his own right. but in order to pose an actual threat, he's going to have to come with a new and improved gameplan. whether its leg kicks, knees, aggression, its nothing machida hasn't seen before, not to mention machidas uncanny ability to not get hit and to top it all off, his incredible speed and power. this sport is always evolving and lyoto machida is the next step in this evolution - enjinumbr9 Fri, 29 May 2009 23:08:30 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3096 While I'm a big fan of Shogun I don't think he should have a title shot this fast. Maybe another fight and take on the winner of Machida vs Rampage. But honestly Shogun "if in his top condition" could prove to be a serious...very serious challange for Machida and if anyone could beat Lyoto it would be Shogun or Rampage. So in Lyoto's eyes it's a loose/loose when it comes to an easy challange. This title defense is going to be a very though one. - DocOck Fri, 29 May 2009 20:03:32 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3094 The reason shogun gets the title fight is because rampage wants to fight Rashad Evans so their going to be the coaches for the next season of the ultimate fighter. And i think it makes perfect sense that he gets the title shot. He's ranked number 5 Light Heavyweight And the only guys ahead of him are Rampage and Rashad how are going to fight each other. And Forrest Griffen who is fighting anderson Silva. Pluse i think shogun could win the fight. Each one of his performances are getting better and better. Plus Shogun in the Forrest and Mark Coleman fight was going through injuries. So don't count out Shogun he has good leg kicks solid stricking and a great ground game - Quinton Fri, 29 May 2009 19:48:59 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3092 Shogun doesn't deserve this fight so soon.. Fuck it! he'll get his face mangled in the first round anywho.. On the bright side; there should be a Rashad and Rampage fight round the corner ;D - Marshall art Fri, 29 May 2009 19:31:58 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3091 Why did Danna say during the UFC 98 post fight conference that Machida will fight Rampage. WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING. Give the fighters who deserve to fight for the belt the chace. THIS ISN'T WWE where all you want to do is sell tickets. Danna's heart is more on the $ rather than the sport itself. FIRE THIS PIECE OF SHIT. HE'S THE MOST UNPROFESSIONAL PRESIDENT IVE EVER SEEN IF NOT THEN NAME ONE. - WHAT ????

Chuck could have put him away and he could have possibly faced leaving the UFC. He hasnt performed well in AGES and for him to step in with Machida is a completely different class A shogun in his prime would create a spectacular opponent for Machida as he would fly at him with kneees and cut his legs to ribbons with lashing leg kicks. But hte shogun of late will crash and burn spectacularly. A question to ask is this . . . if or more likely when, machida turns shogun inside out . . . what is next for shogun? there is no fall back, this is do or die, he hasnt performed lately, he has got this shot off of his form from years ago and his reputation, not because of his fights in the UFC. if he loses this he will have to face another top name to keep him in the picture maybe the loser of rashad and rampage, and to be fair i can see both of them turnin his lights out, he will have no legitimate claim to still being in the UFC. I say shogum should have faced jon jones as this would give jon jones a true name on his list of defeated fighters and would give him a step into facing top top fighters. All in all i still say Bring Back Chuck!!! - craig bk Fri, 29 May 2009 17:23:13 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3087 One win against a washed up Liddel and two pathetic performances against Griffin, Coleman equals one UFC title shot! This is going to be a walk in the park for Machida! Shogun has not done anything impressive for years! Hell i think i deserve a shot at the title! - bif Fri, 29 May 2009 15:02:58 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3080 for the future of karate mixing up ufc. :P - aussie Fri, 29 May 2009 10:30:31 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/News/Mauricio-Shogun-Rua-signs-to-fight-Lyoto-Machida-at-UFC-104#comment-3079 That'll be a great match up, Shogun could out move him and work those legs and add body shots he'll break machida down and win. - Aries Fri, 29 May 2009 08:45:56 +0100
