    l'm not even that worried about the undercard tonight. My pick...Machida FTW, in the third round.

    I don't see Rua stopping Machida..

    Machida will pick him apart and eventually KO him.. its more of a question of how quick it will be.

    Rothwell and Velasquez should be a slugfest.. I really don't care who wins as long as its entertaining.

    I like Tibau, Stevenson, Johnson, and Bader in the other fights on this weak card.

    I'm going underdog. Rua is no slouch and very aggressive. If he can get it to the ground Machida may have a hard time... if being the key word.

    Definitey robbed. Machida did not fight like his normal self.. seemed to not want to swing like he usually eventually does.

    Maybe in the rematch he fights like he normally does. But by then Rua will probably have all the confidence in the world.

    I don't think it had anything to do with Machida not being his normal self. It has more to do with Rua not playing Machida's game. Rua was smart and I honestly don't see the second fight going much different except for some doubt in Machida's head along with new judges...

    Agreed. Well, there might one thing different about the next fight. The winner of it. =)
