JoeC36 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Rua was the best in 205 before he lost to Forrest Griffin and he should have won the first fight. He's taking this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serphnx Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I don't know how to read these odds. Who is the favorite? Is Machida getting a handicap because of his bull**** decision win last time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L.S. Dylan Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Betting the house on Lyoto. Shogun couldn't handle Machida's flurries last time and that's how he won a lot of those rounds. I expect Machida to increase the flurries and to finish it. I don't see what Shogun could really do better this time. He couldn't take Lyoto down last time and all he did was leg kicks. If he gets anymore aggressive that would be playing into Lyoto's game and that would be even better for Machida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw the best Shogun we'll ever see last time he fought Machida. Shogun's a JAG and I think Machida underestimated him last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we'll find out tomorrow. Should be worth watching no matter what happens. One of the few big MMA matches I'm interested in. At least it won't be another 25 minute leg hump like with Strikeforce and GSP matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kos would be an interesting match up. They already fought a close fight once.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Regardless of what happens these are ridiculous odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serphnx Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Tch...I just got word that Shogun's knee is injured. He will fight anyway, but now I don't really give him much of a chance. I wish I had known this before I plunked all my vcash on him, this looks like a sure win for Machida if my intel is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Shogun won actually and bankrupted me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serphnx Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I wonder if the knee thing was misinformation, or Shogun is just so damn badass it doesn't even matter. That was awesome. He got robbed the first time and he wasn't going to mess around this time. Now all the Machida nuthuggers can go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 to be fair Rua is the one that actually wears the nuthuggers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
