what do you guys think? personally i thought machida won. i watched couple of times and i can;t see how the judges had rampage winning. neither fighter had real effective strikes although machida landed the most with the leg kicks and machida had 3 take downs to rampages 1. i gave machida the first round. the 2nd could have went to either but i could see the judges giving it to rampage because of that takedown and machida winninig the 3rd round.

I had Rampage winning rounds 1 and 2 by a little and Machida winning round 3 big. Rampage won the fight because the scoring is a 10 point system. I suppose I could have lived with a draw. But no way Machida won the fight.

As I mentioned in another thread, as the first rd continued I began to think machida needs to pick up the pace...almost like he resorted back to his old boring self. This is no karate point scoring tournament...get your ass in there like forrest did,score multiple shots, and get out then do it again and again.
I wish he would have held that choke in the 3rd and gotten power bombed through the mat. Now he gets no rematch according to dana...it's his own damn fault. In there fighting like he has the belt defending it all laid back. Oh well.
