Shogun came back from 2 reconstucted knee surgury's and close to 2 years without a fight..... You people that say Shogun sucks only watch and know about UFC, and know nothing about MMA. I'm sure Shogun is ready and in shape for this fight and an in shape Shogun is right up there with GSP, BJ Penn, Silva, and the Dragon as the pound for pound best..... In my Opinion Machida has fought and beat Tito, who doesnt beat Tito?!? he hasnt won a fight since a 40 year old Shamrock.... Machida also beat Evans, now who really did Evans beat to win the belt..... Run Forrest run Griffen, he just got knocked out by a jab..... Evens knocked out Chuck, who dosent knock out Chuck lately?!? Machida won a decision over BJ Penn a decision, I know BJ is tough, but isnt he a light wieght?!? Dont get me wrong I like Machida but you guy's overrate him and underrartes Shogun and this is gonna be great fight I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Shogun wins this fight..... One more thing, when's the last time Machidas fought a true Tai Kickboxer? Evans a wrestler learning how to strike, Tito a wrestler and ground a pound specialist not a great stand up game, Tiago Silva ground and pound can box a bit but no kicks, BJ Penn, I dont think has ever tried to kick... Well Shogun will know how to block and watch for Machidas kicks and he'll be able to kick back...... I cant wait for this fight, so stoked.....
