I wanna see Machida ... ( 6 months ago by wanderdull)

I wanna see Machida vs. Spider Silva... There is no opponets to beat Spider in Middleweight. So, I think He should upgrade to Lightheavyweight and fight against Machida It would be the fight of the fights!!!!

well karate is ... ( 6 months ago by piloerecter)

well karate is under rated cuz by itself it's really hard n in early ufc it didn't do well. Now that grappling and mma is more public than traditional martial arts it is more predictable than mma. traditional is harder to do but when ur used to doing hard stuff then striking like boxing and kickboxing in ufc is a lot easier!

Lyotto machida is a big asset to MMA ... he is bringing a whole different style to UFC. REAL martial Arts. Pure tecnich...The only one to do that was Royce gracie long time ago...Wanderley silva has no chance against machida,,, actually exept Anderson Silva ...no one else has a chance against machida...

His father, a karate master, taught him good life lessons: be strong, be real, that in life one is ultimately alone and must face challenges by himself. A real martial artist, not just a combat athlete.

i disagree. ... ( 5 months ago by jimboslice201)

i disagree. wanderlei and machida's styles are at the opposite ends of the aggression spectrum.. machida is pure technique wanderlei fights on pure fury and instinct.. im not counting either one of them out.. but they sure are great fighters at their own style of fighting

Shotokan Karate.

You're right about ... ( 4 months ago by Saku19)

You're right about Machida...but Wanderlei can also fight technical, look at his first fight against Cro Cop. Anyways, Machida is a very talented fighter, the guy practialy flows like water. It's like no one can hit him, he makes his opponents' striking look terrible.

thats the crazy ... ( 4 months ago by melcon222)

thats the crazy thing. there are hardely any full karate fighters competing in the mma world! so when ppl like lyoto come up, no figter knows how to cope with it. nobody has gone with someone like lyoto, and thats the secret to his success.

Machida is ... ( 3 months ago by AbuGrabIt)

Machida is extremely athletic and has tremendous body control and balance, but he is super defensive. He rarely went on offense against Tito. I hope he can show more in future fights.

Exactly. He didn't ... ( 3 months ago by Punj4biUK)

Exactly. He didn't run, but kept stepping in and out, and hitting strikes on Tito.

I agree. ... ( 3 months ago by chavalote)

I agree. Traditional martial arts are a very very long and difficult road, so people understimate them, cause lots of people leaves before learn it properly.

i love machida. ... ( 3 months ago by blakemoody3)

i love machida. people give him shit but that is only fools who nothing about real fighting. he is undefeated so until he is beaten, no one can say nothing

he is a shotokan ... ( 2 months ago by bullstaff72)

5 stars! ( 1 month ago by gagi1963andjeo)

5 stars!

Array ( 4 weeks ago by Eterud)

Then he did good. Karate isn't about who hits first, but about who has the strongest defense. Defense wins from offense, counterattacks win.
