Back in October 2009, I attended UFC 104 in Los Angeles. After years of covering mixed martial arts from my home in Texas, I was finally beginning to attend UFC events on a regular basis. I believe UFC 104 was my sixth event in a row, though I’d kindly ask that you not hold me […]

If you want to get technical about it, Lyoto Machida actually threw two kicks Saturday during his main event bout against CB Dollaway. Really, though, all he needed was the one. That crushing left to the body—that’s all it took for Machida to dispatch the overmatched Dollaway just one minute and two seconds into the […]

If anyone knows just how good Chris Weidman is, it’s Lyoto Machida. The former light heavyweight champion went toe-to-toe with the current middleweight champion for 25 minutes and came up on the losing end.

After three years out of the cage, Chinzo Machida, brother of former UFC light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida, returned in devastating fashion with a savage knockout of Brian Wood. You can check out a GIF of the hellacious flying knee that put Wood on a stretcher here (courtesy of Bloody Elbow’s Zombie Prophet). Machida has […]

With his highlight-reel knockout over Mark Munoz last Saturday at UFC Fight Night 30, Lyoto Machida became a major player in the UFC’s increasingly competitive middleweight division. Despite the victory being his first showing at 185 pounds, “The Dragon’s” credentials as former light heavyweight champion and status as one of the most unpredictable strikers in […]

Saying Lyoto Machida‘s arrival to the middleweight division was highly anticipated is putting it mildly. The former light heavyweight champion is undoubtedly one of the most difficult puzzles to solve in mixed martial arts as he’s continuously proven to be one of the most pressing stylistic matchups imaginable inside the cage.
