djrs Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 brandon vera can give machida a good fight.. Quote Link to comment
ixnay Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 vera could be a good pick but he still has to gain some points before he would be able to get a title shot. as for shogun, he could be the next in line after rampage. still, i have doubts if someone could really match up with machida's level as of the moment.

riceb0i Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Vitor "The Phenom" Belfort Paulo Filho (Former WEC Middleweight Champ) Malamang isang malupit na grappler ang tatalo dyan kay Machida! My picks:Shogun RuaFedorAronaFilho had a lackluster outing with Sonnen last time, and he didn't make weight for his title defense, that must've pissed Sonnen off...dapat si Sonnen ang MW champion ng WEC before it closed out that division speaking of people who has a chance against the Dragon, the last person i saw who had a chance against him was a pudgy BJ Penn but right now Lyoto is untouchable in the LHW division Quote Link to comment

If that happens, I'll place my bet on the dragon. GSP wouldn't stand a chance. Quote Link to comment

GSP wouldn't stand a chance. it will not take a rocket scientist to figure that out sir. a man fighting at 170 probably will have a huge disadvantage over a fighter at 205 even at a catch weight, lalo na if si machida pa yung bigger man. yung mga 205 pounders nga hirap sa kanya, si GSP pa although according to other boards GSP cuts alot to be at 170. im not also machida fan but geezzz... he is a very bad man at 205.

riceb0i Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 GSP is like Thiago Alves cuts a ridiculous amount of weight to make WW... sa tingin ko ginagawa nila yun kasi hindi na sila pwede sa MW na mas matatangkad ang kalaban nila, i'd say GSP's height is just right for WW he'd be at a huge disadvantage fighting Lyoto at even a catchweight of 190 in my opinion chief Quote Link to comment

ryujin6190 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 GSP and Rashad are both 5'10 Sir, actually Rashad is a bit taller (5'11") than GSP (5'10"). I noticed that when I watched one of the UFC PrimeTime episodes when GSP is sparring w/ Rashad for the BJ Penn fight. Quote Link to comment
TEQUILAJOE Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 What do you guys think of machida vs cung le??? Both have knock out power and unorthodox striking. Both are 205 lbs. and counter artist. I dont think this match up would happen in the near future, but who knows? Quote Link to comment
