Ryu vs. Ken - Official UFC on FOX: Machida vs. Rockhold Thread [Sat. April 18]

[Dynasty]

Wow destroyed Machida

 

[Kenny West]

That elbow to the back of his head left Machida on dream street

Yea he looked like he was drunk in the 2nd

 

[curz]

Only so many times a guy should get choked out like that....

 

[FaTaL]

Machida didn't look good at the weigh-in, it's obvious something was off but I take nothing away from Luke. Lets not act like Weidman wasn't in deep shyt the last two rounds of their fight. Luke is gonna give Weidman hell, Chris's stamina is suspect.

something defiantly is off if machida has a hard time making 185

anyways he needs to retire,it just aint happening no more

 

[blackestofpanthers]

Why do people act like machida didn't get sonned by shogun twice and lost to over the hill rampage

Asking what happened to him

He loses to most top opposition as always

I knew it wouldn't be long before the excuses.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Weidman is so corny

 

[jackswstd]

I knew it wouldn't be long before the excuses.

What excuses? It was rumored his shoulder was injured and even still Luke dominated nonetheless and won just like I picked that he would.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

Crosses fingers that Weidman/Rockhold could actually stay injury free to fight each other.

 

[8====D]

we already know whats going to happen. . .whoever wins weidman vs. belfort will get injured and rockhold vs. jacare II will be set up for the next shot at the belt!

He's not the same fighter at 185. His power is gone and so is his speed to a degree.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Rockhold got away with some questionable shots....but overall he still dominated him. Wtf happened to Machida tho.....

Why are we ignoring that Rockhold delivered a clear elbow to the back of the head? And why we also ignoring that Machida was landing cleanly before he slipped?

well hes 36, it might be time to hang it up

That elbow definitely made a huge difference, up until the slip Luke was getting lit up.
