This matchup could determine who faces the winner of the Weidman vs. Belfort championship fight.

My Prediction: I think Machida will win this fight. Rockhold is currently enjoying a three fight win streak, but his most notable win was against Michael Bisping via submission. The last time he tried to step up vs elite competition, he was KOed by Vitor Belfort. Rockhold has yet to prove he can hang with the upper crust of the divison.


Here is the rest of the main card for Sat night:

#1 Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza vs Chris Camozzi (fill in for Romero injury)

#5 Cub Swanson vs #9 Max Holloway

#8 Felice Herrig vs #12 Paige VanZant


Prelims start at 6PM ET (also on Fox)

I have no problem having it moved after a while. It is normal protocol to post it on the main board, so that it gets the most views/exposure possible.

Don't like the matchup but always hoping Machida wins unless he fights Henderson.

Both of them were my favorites in that fight.

Dana White says Rockhold has a horse cock so Getbiggers should just watch the weighin. No homo.

Im sure he would get a rematch with Weidman, in that case.

I just dont envision Weidman holding onto the belt for much longer. He got off easy in those bouts with Anderson Silva, and he went a 5 round unanimous decision with Machida. I wonder if he can survive the initial onslaught that Belfort will bring.

Machida been in so many wars. I just think the day is coming when he won't be at the top of his game. No one gets out of this fight game intact.

What wars. A guy like Shogun has been in wars. Machida is so elusive he has barely taken any damage. He either kos you quick as fuck or he dances around to a decesion.

Luke is a complete fighter, he is a hardworker that's for sure, but isn't spectacular at something.

Machida on the other hand gave Weidman a tough fight, Weidman was loosing the later rounds.

Machida can win this by UD, Luke won't catch Machida.

Machida has some of the most beautiful striking in mma history. He is one of the best fighters alive today. I think prime Machida beats prime Anderson 8-10 times. Anderson said Lyoto gets the better of him sparring, bigger, about as quick, stronger,sharper defensively.



one of the best kos you will ever see

On another note: This Paige VanZant chick looks hot as hell. I hope she fights as good as she looks.

Major hype due to her looks, good boxing dirty in the clinch but tends to get thrown to the ground easily
